Study Summary

The goal of this project is to determine if it is possible to assess Cerebrovascular Reactivity (CVR) to hypercapnia with functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS). Such a method would be particularly helpful in traumatic brain injury (TBI), where objective measures are needed, and would greatly expand the capacity to make such assessments in standard clinical practice.

Primary Outcome

Establish reproducibility of CVR measurements with fNIRS during intersession and intra-session testing. Additionally, we will examine two methods of producing hypercapnia, breath holding and the Douglas bag methods to establish whether the two methods give similar NIRS results.
