Q

Factors that Affect CBF:

why is Steal Phenomenon so detrimental?

A

Ischemic Brain tissue, which has already maximally dilated vessels due to released vasodilator subnstances, loses luxury perfusion due to global shunting of blood flow

Q

Factors that Affect CBF:

what is the inverse steal or Robin hood phenomenon

Determinants of CBF:

what is Autoregulation? include the range!

A
  • The vasculature self regulates by vasoconstrction or vasodilation b/t a MAP of 60-160 mmHg
37
Q

Determinants of CBF:

Autoregulation- if the MAP is less than 60 or greater then 160mmHg what needs to happen in order to maintain anstant CBF

A

additional Vasoconstriction or vasodilation is needed

38

Determinants of CBF:

once Autoregulation is out of range blood flow becomes solely dependent on ________ as the vasculature connot further constrict or dilate th maintain CBF.

right

40
Q

Determinants of CBF:

all VAAs _____ CBF in a dose dependent manner!

A

Increase

41
Q

Cerebral Metabolic Rate Oxygen Consumption (CMRO2)

CMRO2 is expressed as _____ of O2 consumed per ___ g of brain tissue per _____

A

mL

100g

min

42
Q

Cerebral Metabolic Rate Oxygen Consumption (CMRO2)

what is normal CMRO2

A

43
Q

Cerebral Metabolic Rate Oxygen Consumption (CMRO2)

what is the coupling effect w/ CMRO2 and CPP

A
  • Coupling is the direct linear relationship.
  • As CMRO2 increases or Decreases, CPP will also increase or decrease correspondingly
44

A

Decreases

61
Q

ICP:

A

Diuretics

62
Q

ICP:

______ and ______ catheters allow CSF to drain which decreases ICP

A

Ventriculostomy and intrathecal

63
Q

what are teh hallmark sigs of Cushings Reflex?

A
  • HTN
  • Bradycardia
64
Q

Why do you get the HTN and Bradycardia w/ cushings reflex

A
  • When CPP requirements exceed the arterial pressure hyppothalamic sympatheic reflex increases BP tp restroe CBF.
  • The Increased BP stimulates the Carotid bodies which lowers the HR
65

what is Cushings Triad?

A
  • HTN
  • Bradycardia
  • irregular respiration
66
Q

Why does cushing triad occur?

A
  • after the cushing reflex with worsening elevation in ICP for whch the reflex cannot adequatly compensate
  • irregular respirations may ensue
  • this becomes the triad

Q

Cushings triad reflects sever increases in ICP and Severe Cerebral ischemia and Impending ______

A

herniation

68
Q

Just a fact

It is estimated that __% of pts w/ elevated ICP display all 3 components of Cushiings triad

A

33%

69
Q
