The effect of EEG on assessment of cerebral autoregulation

Abstract:

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is determined by vascular resistance, mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) and intracranial pressure. The energy requirement of brain cells means CBF has to be maintained constant despite changes in pressures. Cerebral autoregulation is the mechanism which keeps the CBF constant for a range of variations in pressure. Autoregulation can be impaired after stroke, trauma or anaesthesia. Following the impairment of autoregulation, such as under intensive care conditions, ...
