Summary

This study looked at whether ultrasound measurements of the optic nerve sheath (the lining around the eye nerve) can detect changes in brain pressure during open-heart surgery when a heart-lung machine is used. Forty adults having elective heart surgery were enrolled. The goal was to see if this simple, non-invasive method could help monitor brain health during surgery.
