Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; CSF, cerebrospinal fluid; rSO2 = regional cerebral tissue oxygenation.

aUnadjusted logistic regression models using the first rSO2 measurement in days 1–14.

bModels adjusted for Glasgow Coma Scale <15, CSF white cells >5 cells/μL, CSF quantitative culture, temperature, and anemia (<11 g/dL for men, <10.5 g/dL for women).

cClinical outcomes on or after the rSO2 measurement.
