Abstract
The effect of hypoxemia (HO, 10% 02) with and without hypervolemia (HV, blood transfusion 20% 20 min (20′) after HO) on cerebral blood flow (CBF) was studied in 22 newborn piglets with the microsphere method. CBF was measured in brainstem (BS), cerebellum (CBL) and cerebrum (CBR) at baseline (BL), during HO or at baseline 2 (BL2), 20 min after HO (20′) or after HV, and 30 (30′) and 60 min (60′) after HO. Results were (ml/100g/min, mean ± SD.):
HO does not influence the ability to regulate the circulatory response to a volume load.
