Fig. 1From: Tourniquet-induced tissue hypoxia characterized by near-infrared spectroscopy during ankle surgery: an observational studyGroup mean and standard deviation of somatic tissue oxygen saturation (SstO2) monitored distal (SstO2-distal) and proximal (SstO2-prox) to the tourniquet and on the contralateral leg (SstO2-contra) and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (SctO2) monitored on the forehead at different time points. Tend = time point at the end of tourniquet inflation; Tpost = time point 3–5 min after tourniquet deflationBack to article page
