Study population: It was planned to include 40 patients, male and female, between the ages of 50 and 80, who were scheduled for elective CEA under general anesthesia, taking into account previous similar studies (1,3,4) and power analysis.

Brief summary: The main purpose of this study is to investigate the contribution of changes in Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter (OSNC) measured at different periods during Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA) operations to the prediction of neurological problems detected in the postoperative period. The secondary aim of the study is to examine the relationship between optic nerve sheath diameter measurement and other routinely used perioperative follow-up parameters in terms of predicting neurological problems.

Detailed description: CEA operations are generally performed on elderly patients and patients with different comorbidities. These patients have carotid artery stenosis and often thrombus. 85% of all stroke cases are due to ischemic causes, and 15-30% of them are due to carotid artery stenosis. The treatment method is usually surgery. CEA operations. Early detection of cerebral hypoperfusion and ischemia during the operation is important. Carotid clamp applications, which must be used during the operation upon the decision of the surgical team, may cause cerebral hypoperfusion. In addition, the resulting systemic hypotension further worsens this situation. In order to prevent cerebral hypoperfusion, carotid shunt applications can be performed to ensure flow continuity, and at the same time, cerebral hypoperfusion is tried to be prevented by keeping the mean arterial pressure high. Close monitoring of these cases and follow-up of cerebral perfusion adequacy is important to detect ischemia and embolism events that may develop especially during these periods. ECG, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), and Bispectral index (BIS) are routinely used in monitoring. In addition, it is reported in the literature that there are changes in ONCH, which can be easily evaluated with USG, in cases such as ischemic stroke and increased intracranial pressure, an increasing trend occurs and shows an excellent correlation with invasive intracranial pressure monitoring. ONSD has been associated with increases in intracranial pressure. In these patients in whom a carotid clamp is placed, an increase in intracranial pressure due to ischemia and cerebral hypoperfusion and a corresponding increase in ONSD may be observed. In this context, in our study, in addition to routine monitoring methods, we measured the Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter (OSCN), which can be examined practically with the help of ultrasonography (USG), which we use in our daily practice in the operating room, and does not require any additional cost and labor, and thus, we measured the parameters such as cerebral ischemia and increased intracranial pressure that may develop in the intraoperative period. We planned to investigate its contribution to the prediction of neurological problems and its relationship with other follow-up parameters. Measurement of ONSC with USG is a very simple, noninvasive and non-harmful method.
