The Association of High Jugular Bulb Venous Oxygen Saturation with Cognitive Decline After Hypothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Bibliographic record
Abstract
UNLABELLED: This study was conducted to investigate whether jugular bulb venous oxygen saturation (SjVO(2)) predicted cognitive decline after cardiac surgery with hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). We studied 35 patients undergoing cardiac surgery. After the induction of anesthesia, a 5.5F fiberoptic oximetry catheter was retrogradely inserted into the jugular bulb, and SjVO(2) and other cerebral oxygenation variables were analyzed before, during, and after CPB. At each point, an oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve was drawn, and the P(50) value of jugular bulb venous blood was calculated by computer analysis. Cognitive function was assessed with the revised version of Hasegawa's Dementia Scale and the Benton Revised Visual Retention Test before and early after the operation. In 15 patients (the Decline group), cognitive function was declined after surgery, whereas it remained unchanged in 20 patients (the Normal group). SjVO(2) was significantly higher and cerebral oxygen extraction was significantly lower before and during CPB in the Decline group than in the Normal group (P < 0.05). The oxygen pressure at an oxygen saturation of 50% was significantly lower before and after CPB in the Decline group than in the Normal group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that high SjVO(2) was a predictor of cognitive decline after cardiac surgery. We conclude that high SjVO(2) was associated with cognitive decline after cardiac surgery with hypothermic CPB. IMPLICATIONS: Jugular bulb venous oxygen desaturation has been suggested as a predictor of cognitive decline after cardiac surgery. However, the clinical value of jugular bulb venous oxygen saturation (SjVO(2)) may be limited during hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) when oxygen affinity to hemoglobin is increased. This study shows that high SjVO(2) before and during hypothermic CPB is a predictor of subsequent cognitive decline.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
