Background. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) has been shown to cause impairment in recovery of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral metabolism (CMRO2) proportional to the duration of the DHCA period. This effect on CMRO2may be a marker for brain injury, because CMRO2recovers normally after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) when DHCA is not used. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of intermittent perfusion during DHCA on the recovery of CMRO2after CPB and to correlate these findings with electron microscopy (EM) of the cerebral microcirculatory bed. |
