Brain function critically depends on a close matching between metabolic demands,
appropriate delivery of oxygen and nutrients, and removal of cellular waste. This matching …

Cerebral autoregulation (CA) refers to the control of cerebral tissue blood flow (CBF) in
response to changes in perfusion pressure. Due to the challenges of measuring intracranial …

Regulation of the cerebral circulation relies on the complex interplay between
cardiovascular, respiratory, and neural physiology. In health, these physiologic systems act …

Brain injury is one of the most consequential problems facing neonates, with many preterm
and term infants at risk for cerebral hypoxia and ischemia. To develop effective …

Adequate oxygen delivery to a tissue depends on sufficient oxygen content in arterial blood
and blood flow to the tissue. Oximetry is a technique for the assessment of blood …

Purpose Patients with dysautonomia often experience symptoms such as dizziness,
syncope, blurred vision and brain fog. Dynamic cerebral autoregulation, or the ability of the …

This comprehensive review summarizes the evidence regarding use of cerebral
autoregulation-directed therapy at the bedside and provides an evaluation of its impact on …

The population is ageing worldwide, thus increasing the burden of common age-related
disorders to the individual, society and economy. Cerebrovascular diseases (stroke …

Cerebral autoregulation represents the physiological mechanisms that keep brain perfusion
relatively constant in the face of changes in blood pressure and thus plays an essential role …

Objective: To compare cerebral autoregulation indices as predictors of patient outcome and
their dependence on duration of monitoring. Data Sources: Systematic literature search and …
