CA monitoring, through direct and indirect techniques, may guide an appropriate therapeutic approach aimed at improving CBF and reducing neurological complications; so far, the role of CA has been investigated mainly in brain-injured patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of CA in non-brain injured patients.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold> A systematic consultation of literature was carried out. Search terms included: \u201cCA and sepsis,\u201d \u201cCA and surgery,\u201d and \u201cCA and non-brain injury.\u201d<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> Our research individualized 294 studies and after screening, 22 studies were analyzed in this study. Studies were divided in three groups: CA in sepsis and septic shock, CA during surgery, and CA in the pediatric population. Studies in sepsis and intraoperative setting highlighted a relationship between the incidence of sepsis-associated delirium and impaired CA. The most investigated setting in the pediatric population is cardiac surgery, but the role and measurement of CA need to be further elucidated.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:<\/jats:bold> In non-brain injured patients, impaired CA may result in cognitive dysfunction, neurological damage, worst outcome, and increased mortality. Monitoring CA might be a useful tool for the bedside optimization and individualization of the clinical management in this group of patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fneur.2021.732176","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,16]],"date-time":"2021-11-16T07:37:25Z","timestamp":1637048245000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Cerebral
