Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To measure the changes in the middle cerebral artery flow velocity related in the various positions used for posterior fossa surgeryTimepoint: Preoperative before induction,Post induction before positioning,Post induction after positioning,Post surgery post extubation when patient is supine

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in Pulsatility index,Resistive index,Effective cerebral perfusion pressure by Belforts formulaTimepoint: Preoperative before induction,Post induction before positioning,Post induction after positioning,Post surgery post extubation when patient is supine;correlate these changes with postoperative recovery in terms of duration of ICU stay,duration of mechanical ventilation,hospital stay and postoperative complicationsTimepoint: At discharge;Glassgow outcome scale-extendedTimepoint: Postoperative day at discharge and at one month
