Ketamine inhibits fetal ACTH responses to cerebral hypoperfusion.
The present study tested the effect of ketamine on the fetal reflex responses of late-gestation sheep to brachiocephalic occlusion (BCO), a stimulus that mimics the reduction in cerebral blood flow that results from severe fetal hypotension. Ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic and known noncompetitive antagonist of N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, has previously been shown to impair chemo...
متن کاملBlockade of PGHS-2 inhibits the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis response to cerebral hypoperfusion in the sheep fetus.
Decreases in fetal blood pressure stimulate homeostatic stress responses that help return blood pressure to normal levels. Fetal hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis responses to hypotension are mediated by chemoreceptor and baroreceptor reflexes and ischemia of the fetal central nervous system. Indomethacin, a nonselective inhibitor of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase (PGHS)-1 and -2, ...
متن کاملCoronary vascular response to the cerebral ischemia reflex.
Most centrally mediated sympathoexcitatory reflexes produce increases in arterial pressure, heart rate, and peripheral vascular resistance, including coronary vasoconstriction. Cerebral ischemia also causes large increases in arterial pressure and peripheral vasoconstriction but with modest or variable changes in heart rate. To examine the effect of cerebral ischemia on coronary vascular resist...
متن کاملOrthostatic Cerebral Hypoperfusion Syndrome
OBJECTIVE Orthostatic dizziness without orthostatic hypotension is common but underlying pathophysiology is poorly understood. This study describes orthostatic cerebral hypoperfusion syndrome (OCHOs). OCHOs is defined by (1) abnormal orthostatic drop of cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFv) during the tilt test and (2) absence of orthostatic hypotension, arrhythmia, vascular abnormalities, or oth...
متن کاملChronic cerebral hypoperfusion: loss of pupillary reflex, visual impairment and retinal neurodegeneration.
Adult rats underwent permanent bilateral occlusion of the common carotid arteries (2VO) to determine the effect of chronic cerebral ischemia on vision and retina. They were monitored post-surgically for the presence of the pupillary reflex to light. Some rats were tested for 6 months post-surgically on a radial arm maze task and then tested in another water-escape task which explicitly tested v...
