Adrenal glands are essential for activation of glucogenesis during undernutrition in fetal sheep near term.
In adults, the adrenal glands are essential for the metabolic response to stress, but little is known about their role in fetal metabolism. This study examined the effects of adrenalectomizing fetal sheep on glucose and oxygen metabolism in utero in fed conditions and after maternal fasting for 48 h near term. Fetal adrenalectomy (AX) had little effect on the rates of glucose and oxygen metabol...
متن کاملNear infrared cerebral oxygenation monitoring
This technique employs principles of optical spectrophotometry which exploits the fact that biological material including skull, is relatively transparent in the near infrared range. Light transmission depends on a combination of reflectance, scattering and absorption effects. Reflectance is primarily a function of the angle of the light beam to the tissue surface, while scattering decreases wi...
متن کاملNear infrared spectroscopy evaluated cerebral oxygenation during anesthesia.
Likely, maintained organ and notably cerebral perfusion, secures rapid recovery following anesthesia. To secure cerebral blood flow (CBF) at least mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) need to be considered. CBF is "autoregulated", i.e. stays more or less stable within a MAP of 50-150 mmHg, but the lower limit appears to depend on the central blood volume ...
متن کاملFetal acidosis and hypotension during repeated umbilical cord occlusions are associated with enhanced chemoreflex responses in near-term fetal sheep.
This study examined the hypothesis that repeated episodes of brief but severe hypoxia would not attenuate the chemoreflex-mediated rapid initial fall in fetal heart rate (FHR) and, further, that greater hypoxic stress, as shown by hypotension and metabolic acidosis, would be associated with an enhanced chemoreflex response. Chronically instrumented, near-term fetal sheep received 1 min total um...
متن کاملCerebral circulatory responses of near-term ovine fetuses during sustained fetal placental embolization.
To test the hypothesis that, in response to an increase in placental vascular resistance and progressive fetal asphyxia, the changes in external carotid blood flow waveforms are directly related to changes in external carotid vascular resistance, we embolized the fetal side of the placenta in pregnant sheep and measured cerebral and external carotid artery circulatory changes in relation to cha...
