Cerebral distribution of cardiac output in newborn infants.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cerebral blood flow and output of the left ventricle were simultaneously investigated in 17 infants using multichannel near infrared spectroscopy and pulse dye densitometry with indocyanine green. Cardiac output and cerebral blood flow were positively related. The control of cardiac output is important in the regulation of cerebral blood flow in infants.

Dual role of cerebral blood flow in regional brain temperature control in the healthy newborn infant
Small shifts in brain temperature after hypoxia-ischaemia affect cell viability. The main determinants of brain temperature are cerebral metabolism, which contributes to local heat production, and brain perfusion, which removes heat. However, few studies have addressed the effect of cerebral metabolism and perfusion on regional brain temperature in human neonates because of the lack of non-inva...
متن کاملThe correlation between myocardial function and cerebral hemodynamics in term infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
This study investigated the effect of myocardial dysfunction on the cerebral hemodynamics in term infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). We evaluated myocardial systolic and diastolic functional parameters and cerebral hemodynamic parameters in 40 term newborn infants with HIE and 30 healthy controls during the first 14 days of life using two-dimensional/pulsed Doppler ultrasound. ...
متن کاملVein of Galen Aneurysmal Malformation and High-output Cardiac Failure in a Newborn
Background: Vein of Galen aneurysm (VGA) is the most common form of symptomatic cerebrovascular malformation in neonates. It develops in a fetus in the first trimester of pregnancy due to unknown reasons, but it is likely to have a genetic etiology. The prognosis of VGA is usually poor, particularly in newborns with heart failure due to high-flow intracerebral shunt. Surgery and endovascular em...
متن کاملDye dilution curves and cardiac output in newborn infants.
The pattern of ldye dilution curves and the cardiac output was studied in 29 healthy newborn infants during the first 26 hours of life by the method of Wood and his associates. Thirty-six per cent of all infants studied had curves of normal contour which occurred mostly in infants older than 15 hours. Infants younger than 15 hours tended to have curves of abnormal shape. These were either di-ph...
متن کاملReproducibility of measurements of cardiac output in newborn infants by Doppler ultrasound.
Interobserver reproducibility in deriving cardiac output by measuring aortic blood flow velocity and diameter with imaging and Doppler ultrasound was investigated in 20 healthy infants born at full term. Aortic diameter was measured in three ways. Mean blood flow velocity was measured at three sites with both continuous wave and pulsed Doppler. Two observers carried out each study independently...
