Popis: | In healthy humans, cerebral blood flow (CBF) is autoregulated against changes in arterial blood pressure. Spontaneous fluctuations in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and CBF can be used to assess cerebral autoregulation. We hypothesized that dynamic cerebral autoregulation is affected by changes in autonomic activity, MAP, and cardiac output (CO) induced by handgrip (HG), head‐down tilt (HDT), and their combination. In thirteen healthy volunteers, we recorded blood velocity by ultrasound in the internal carotid artery (ICA), HR, MAP and CO‐estimates from continuous finger blood pressure, and end‐tidal CO 2. Instantaneous ICA beat volume (ICABV, mL) and ICA blood flow (ICABF, mL/min) were calculated. Wavelet synchronization index γ (0–1) was calculated for the pairs: MAP–ICABF, CO–ICABF and HR–ICABV in the low (0.05–0.15 Hz; LF) and high (0.15–0.4 Hz; HF) frequency bands. ICABF did not change between experimental states. MAP and CO were increased during HG (+16% and +15%, respectively, P |
