Cerebral autoregulation monitoring in neonates and infants after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass - comparison of single ventricle and biventricular physiology [PDF]
IntroductionCardiopulmonary bypass surgery can lead to impaired cerebral autoregulation with the risk for ischemia, hemorrhage and delirium. In particular, infants with single ventricle physiology have altered hemodynamics with persistent veno-arterial ...

Recent advances in cerebral oximetry. Assessment of cerebral autoregulation with near-infrared spectroscopy: myth or reality? [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]
In recent years, the feasibility of near-infrared spectroscopy to continuously assess cerebral autoregulation has gained increasing interest. By plotting cerebral oxygen saturation over blood pressure, clinicians can generate an index of autoregulation ...

Impaired Cerebral Autoregulation during Head Up Tilt in Patients with Severe Brain Injury. [PDF]
Early mobilization is of importance for improving long-term outcome for patients after severe acquired brain injury. A limiting factor for early mobilization by head-up tilt is orthostatic intolerance.

The Effect of Impaired Cerebral Autoregulation on Postoperative Delirium in Neonates and Infants After Corrective Cardiac Surgery: A Study on Modifiable Risk Factors for Delirium [PDF]
Background: The risk factors for developing postoperative pediatric delirium (PD) are multifactorial and include underlying conditions, cyanosis, surgery, intensive care stay, analgesia used for sedation, and withdrawal symptoms ...

A lumped parameter modelling study of cerebral autoregulation in normal pressure hydrocephalus suggests the brain chooses to be ischemic [PDF]
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) is associated with a reduction in cerebral blood flow and an ischemic metabolic state. Ischemia should exhaust the available autoregulation in an attempt to correct the metabolic imbalance.

Cerebral autoregulation, spreading depolarization, and implications for targeted therapy in brain injury and ischemia. [PDF]
Cerebral autoregulation is an intrinsic myogenic response of cerebral vasculature that allows for preservation of stable cerebral blood flow levels in response to changing systemic blood pressure.

Modeling of Cerebral Blood Flow Autoregulation Using Mathematical Control Theory
A mathematical model of cerebral blood flow in the form of a dynamical system is studied. The cerebral blood flow autoregulation modeling problem is treated as a nonlinear control problem and the potential and applicability of the nonlinear control ...
