Cerebral Circulation and Metabolism of Patients with Cerebral Injury

Cerebral circulation and metabolism in uremia.

Data on 16 patients with uremia are presented. The cerebral blood flow was moderately decreased in patients with generalized vascular disease, but was normal in patients with minimal vascular involvement. In both groups the cerebral oxygen consumption (cerebral metabolic rate in terms of oxygen consumption, CAIRO,) was reduced significantly and to the same degree. In contrast, total body metabo...

Thalamonal and Cerebral Circulation

Sir,—We read with much interest the fin-: study by Drs Sari, Okuda and Takeshita (Brit. J. Anaesth. (1972) 44, 330) as it relates closely to our own work. As they state, Fitch and his colleagues (1969) reported that fentanyl and droperidol in combination cause a small reduction in intracranial pressure, suggesting that this might be due to a fall in c.b.f. and CMRo,. This led us to study the af...

Reactivity of the cerebral circulation in patients with carotid occlusion.

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and the response to hypercapnia (cerebral reactivity) have been measured in 41 patients with unilateral or bilateral internal carotid artery occlusion in an attempt to identify those with limited collateral reserve. Normocapnic CBF was within normal limits in the majority of subjects. The response to hypercapnia varied from normal to absent, with impaired reactivity be...
