Prematurity & Brain InjuryPrematurity & Brain Injury
• Advances in obstetrics & newborn intensive care have led to dramatic improvements in survival
• The immaturity of the infant’s brain makes it inherently more vulnerable to injury
• While causes of neonatal brain injury are multifactorial, our research focuses on disturbances of CBF regulation

ImpairedImpairedCerebral AutoregulationCerebral Autoregulation
• Cerebral autoregulation is generally considered impaired in sick premature infants (Lou 1979)
• Many premature newborns, however, have intact cerebral autoregulation(Kaiser 2004, Tsuji 2002)
• VLBW infants with impaired autoregulation more commonly develop IVH (Milligan 1980, Pryds 1989, Tsuji 2002)

• Ventilated VLBW infants during the first week of age
• Baseline continuouscontinuous monitoring of CBF, arterial blood gases, & BP (~15 min)
• Surfactant administration or endotracheal tube suctioning
• Monitoring ≥ 45 min

HypothesisHypothesis
Cerebral autoregulation becomes progressively impaired with increasing PaCO2 in ventilated VLBW infants during the first week of age

![Page 20: 6 The Effects Of Hypercapnia On Cerebral Autoregulation And Neonatal Brain Injury](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052622/55966dbc1a28abf6748b46c6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
RationaleRationale
• Permissive hypercapnia (PaCO2 45-55 mm Hg) is a ventilatory strategy used by neonatologists to minimize lung damage in VLBW infants
• The problem:– If hypercapnia is associated with impaired cerebral
autoregulation– and impaired cerebral autoregulation is associated
with brain injury
• Then there are thousands of VLBW infants per year at risk for brain injury
![Page 21: 6 The Effects Of Hypercapnia On Cerebral Autoregulation And Neonatal Brain Injury](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052622/55966dbc1a28abf6748b46c6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Statistical MethodsStatistical Methods
• The slope of the relationship between CBF and BP was estimated for 43 VLBW infants during suctioning sessions (n = 117)
• PaCO2 was statistically fixed at 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 mm Hg
• Slope = 0Slope = 0: intact cerebral autoregulation• Slope > 0Slope > 0: impaired cerebral autoregulation

Conclusions and Speculation Conclusions and Speculation
• The slope of the relationship between CBF vs. BP increases with increasing PaCO2
• The cerebral circulation becomes progressively pressure passive with increasing PaCO2
• We speculate that the continued use of permissive hypercapnia during the early neonatal period in VLBW infants may be associated with brain injury, and its use should be reconsidered

Proposed Mechanism: Proposed Mechanism: Hypercapnia, Cerebral Hypercapnia, Cerebral
Autoregulation, and Brain InjuryAutoregulation, and Brain Injury
• With increasing hypercapnia there is maximal vasodilation of cerebral resistance arterioles– Additional vasodilation is inadequate if BP falls
– Sufficient vasoconstriction is not possible if BP increases
– CBF becomes pressure-passive
– Ischemia/reperfusion →→IVH
