The objective of this study is to prospectively evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of with blood pressure management using intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring with SSEP and EEG to reduce perioperative stroke. The central hypothesis is that perioperative stroke occurs from emboli in the setting of significant hypoperfusion resulting in ischemia, which leads to infarction. The impact of the proposed research is that, if significant SSEP and EEG changes can be used to identify cerebral perfusion, then timely therapeutic interventions to effectively reduce the impact of perioperative stroke can be directed.
