Abstract
The electrochemical behavior of oxygen (O2) in blood was studied using boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes. Cyclic voltammogram of O2 in a 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution solution containing 1 × 10-6 M of bovine hemoglobin exhibits a reduction peak at -1.4 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Moreover, the scan rate dependence was investigated to study the reduction reaction mechanism, which was attributable to the reduction of O2 to H2O2 via two electrons. A linear calibration curve was observed in the concentration range of 86.88-314.63 mg L-1 (R2 = 0.99) with a detection limit of 1.0 mg L-1 (S/B = 3). The analytical performance was better than those with glassy carbon or platinum electrodes as the working electrode. In addition, an application to bovine blood was performed. The O2 concentration in the blood measured on the BDD electrodes was compared to that measured using an OxyLite Pro fiber-optic oxygen sensor device. Both methods gave similar values of the O2 concentration in the range of ∼40 to 150 mmHg. This result confirms that BDD electrodes could potentially be used to detect the O2 concentration in blood.

Broadband near-infrared spectroscopy can detect cyanide-induced cytochrome aa 3 inhibition in rats: a proof of concept study. Can J Anaesth 2016; 64:376-384. [PMID: 28008565 DOI: 10.1007/s12630-016-0803-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2016] [Revised: 10/31/2016] [Accepted: 12/13/2016] [Indexed: 10/20/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Clinically available near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) devices use two to five wavelengths of light to measure the relative amounts of oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin in tissue to determine tissue hemoglobin oxygen saturation (StO2). In addition to StO2, broadband NIRS devices (using hundreds of wavelengths of light) may be able to measure the oxidation state of mitochondrial cytochrome aa3 (Cytox) which reflects the subcellular energetic state. We hypothesize that broadband NIRS devices can measure Cytox independent of changes in hemoglobin saturation. METHODS In this prospective non-randomized study, 20 male Sprague-Dawley rats (300 g) were anesthetized with isoflurane, tracheally intubated, and ventilated with 100% O2 containing 2% isoflurane. They were subsequently instrumented with a broadband NIRS device that used a halogen light source coupled to an emitting fibreoptic cable. Three receiving fibreoptic cables were utilized; one analyzed the light source and the other two were directed at the base of the skull. Each receiving fibre was connected to a spectrometer to measure light intensity. Sodium cyanide (NaCN) 5 mg·kg-1 iv was injected in order to produce cytochrome aa3 reduction. Two to three minutes after injection, oxygen was eliminated and 100% nitrogen (i.e., anoxia) was used for ventilation in order to induce a reduction in both cytochrome aa3 and hemoglobin desaturation. Changes in the cytochrome oxidation state and hemoglobin oxygenation were calculated using a broadband algorithm and compared before and after both the NaCN and anoxia interventions. RESULTS The NaCN injection resulted in a decrease in median [interquartile range (IQR)] deoxyhemoglobin (-0.014 [-0.29 to -0.005] arbitrary units [AU]; P < 0.001), an increase in oxyhemoglobin (0.013 [-0.011 to 0.031] AU; P < 0.001), and a reduction in cytochrome aa3 (-0.015 [-0.020 to -0.011] AU; P < 0.001). Anoxia resulted in an increase in median [IQR] deoxyhemoglobin (0.13 [0.11 to 0.18] AU; P < 0.001), a decrease in oxyhemoglobin (-0.17 [-0.22 to -0.15] AU; P < 0.001), and a reduction in cytochrome aa3 (-0.04 [-0.06 to -0.03] AU; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Broadband NIRS can effectively measure the directionality of changes in both Cytox and StO2 by uncoupling the cytochrome and hemoglobin signals through inhibition of the electron transport chain and anoxia.

Abstract
The long-term neurodevelopmental outcome has been a great concern for cardiac surgeons although it is still unclear. There are some risks regarding the neurological and neuropsychological deficits before, during and after cardiovascular surgery. Current status of brain protection during congenital heart surgery could be reported. The incidence of neurologic outcome and the appropriate CPB strategy for brain protection are stated, and the latest data of neurodevelopmental outcome after pediatric cardiac surgery are clarified.

Abstract
Fetal susceptibility to hypoxic brain injury increases over the last third of gestation. This study examined the hypothesis that this is associated with impaired mitochondrial adaptation, as measured by more rapid oxidation of cytochrome oxidase (CytOx) during profound asphyxia. Methods: Chronically instrumented fetal sheep at 0.6, 0.7, and 0.85 gestation were subjected to either 30 min (0.6 gestational age (ga), n = 6), 25 min (0.7 ga, n = 27) or 15 min (0.85 ga, n = 17) of complete umbilical cord occlusion. Fetal EEG, cerebral impedance (to measure brain swelling) and near-infrared spectroscopy-derived intra-cerebral oxygenation (ΔHb = HbO2 – Hb), total hemoglobin (THb) and CytOx redox state were monitored continuously. Occlusion was associated with profound, rapid fall in ΔHb in all groups to a plateau from 6 min, greatest at 0.85 ga compared to 0.6 and 0.7 ga (p<0.05). THb initially increased at all ages, with the greatest rise at 0.85 ga (p<0.05), followed by a progressive fall from 7 min in all groups. CytOx initially increased in all groups with the greatest rise at 0.85 ga (p<0.05), followed by a further, delayed increase in preterm fetuses, but a striking fall in the 0.85 group after 6 min of occlusion. Cerebral impedance (a measure of cytotoxic edema) increased earlier and more rapidly with greater gestation. In conclusion, the more rapid rise in CytOx and cortical impedance during profound asphyxia with greater maturation is consistent with increasing dependence on oxidative metabolism leading to earlier onset of neural energy failure before the onset of systemic hypotension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, the microvascular tissue oxygenation and oxidative muscle metabolism during graded hypoxia and reoxygenation were examined in a rabbit model by near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and correlated with high-energy phosphates measured by (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Graded hypoxia was performed in a New Zealand rabbit model (n = 20, 2.0 ± 0.4 kg) by a stepwise reduction of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO(2)) from 0.3 to 0.05 (intervention group versus control group). Recovery and reoxygenation were achieved using FiO(2) of 0.3. A noninvasive NIR spectroscopy sensor and NMR probe was positioned on the surface of the prepared pedicled latissimus dorsi muscle. Microvascular tissue oxygenation (oxyhemoglobin, HbO(2); deoxyhemoglobin, HHb) and redox state of cytochrome oxidase (CytOx) were measured by NIR spectroscopy and correlated with standard values of oxidative muscle metabolism (phosphocreatine, PCr; adenosine triphosphate, ATP) measured by time-resolved (31)P NMR spectroscopy (4.7T). RESULTS Significant correlation was found between PCr and HbO(2) (r = 0.85, P < 0.001) and HHb (r = -0.75, P < 0.001). β-ATP levels correlated significantly with CytOx (r = 0.87, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The data suggest that changes in high-energy phosphates (PCr- and ATP-levels) correlate closely with microvascular tissue oxygenation (HbO(2), HHb, CytOx) measured by NIR spectroscopy.

Abstract
Tissue O₂ can be monitored using a variety of electrochemical techniques and electrodes. In vitro and in vivo characterisation studies for O₂ reduction at carbon paste electrodes (CPEs) using constant potential amperometry (CPA) are presented. Cyclic voltammetry indicated that an applied potential of -650 mV is required for O₂ reduction at CPEs. High sensitivity (-1.49 ± 0.01 nA/μM), low detection limit (ca. 0.1 μM) and good linear response characteristics (R² > 0.99) were observed in calibration experiments performed at this potential. There was also no effect of pH, temperature, and ion changes, and no dependence upon flow/fluid convection (stirring). Several compounds (e.g. dopamine and its metabolites) present in brain extracellular fluid were tested at physiological concentrations and shown not to interfere with the CPA O₂ signal. In vivo experiments confirmed a sub-second response time observed in vitro and demonstrated long-term stability extending over twelve weeks, with minimal O₂ consumption (ca. 1 nmol/h). These results indicate that CPEs operating amperometrically at a constant potential of -650 mV (vs. SCE) can be used reliably to continuously monitor brain extracellular tissue O₂.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a cerebral monitoring method that noninvasively and continuously measures cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation and the redox state of cytochrome oxidase using highly tissue-permeable near-infrared light. This technique now has wide clinical application, and its usefulness in the measurement of cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation has been confirmed under global cerebral injury and/or hypoxemic hypoxia; however, regional cerebral infarction located far from the monitoring site may not be detected by NIRS. Furthermore, the specificity and accuracy of the measurement of the redox state of cytochrome oxidase remain controversial. We apply NIRS to both animal and clinical investigations. Based on these results, we discuss the significance of the measurement of cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation and cytochrome oxidase in vivo and in clinical medicine. Using our algorithm, cytochrome oxidase signals are unaffected by hemoglobin signals, even when hematocrit values change from 35 to 5% under cardiopulmonary bypass in a dog model. In the clinical study, cytochrome oxidase during surgery is likely to be a good (though not perfect) predictor of postoperative cerebral outcome. NIRS appears to be a promising technology, but additional investigations are required to establish its clinical efficacy and justify its routine use during operative and perioperative periods.

Abstract
The preterm fetus is capable of surviving prolonged periods of severe hypoxia without neural injury for much longer than at term. To evaluate the hypothesis that regulated suppression of brain metabolism contributes to this remarkable tolerance, we assessed changes in the redox state of cytochrome oxidase (CytOx) relative to cerebral heat production, and cytotoxic edema measured using cerebral impedance, during 25 min of complete umbilical cord occlusion or sham occlusion in fetal sheep at 0.7 gestation. Occlusion was followed by rapid, profound reduction in relative cerebral oxygenation and EEG intensity and an immediate increase in oxidized CytOx, indicating a reduction in electron flow down the mitochondrial electron transfer chain. Confirming rapid suppression of cerebral metabolism there was a loss of the temperature difference between parietal cortex and body at a time when carotid blood flow was maintained at control values. As occlusion continued, severe hypotension/hypoperfusion developed, with a further increase in CytOx levels to a plateau between 8 and 13 min and a progressive rise in cerebral impedance. In conclusion, these data strongly suggest active regulation of cerebral metabolism during the initial response to severe hypoxia, which may help to protect the immature brain from injury.

Abstract
Currently, no on-line method of assessing cerebral oxygenation is sufficiently accurate to be clinically helpful. In an attempt to find a good predictor of postoperative cerebral outcome, we retrospectively studied the relationship between the redox behavior of cytochrome oxidase (cyt. ox.) during an operation and the neurological prognosis in 83 patients who underwent thoracic aortic surgery. Our data revealed three patterns of change in the redox behavior of cyt. ox. during the operation; the actual pattern exhibited by a given patient showed a highly significant correlation with the neurological prognosis (p < 0.0001). We conclude that the redox behavior of cyt. ox. during an operation is likely to be a good predictor of postoperative cerebral outcome, which implies that brain tissue oxygen sufficiency can be evaluated by near-infrared measurement of cytochrome oxidase (except for that in local regions far from the monitoring site).

Abstract
Mean cerebral saturation and changes in the oxidation state of the CuA centre of cytochrome oxidase were measured by near infra-red spectroscopy simultaneously with phosphorous metabolites and intracellular pH measured using 31P NMR spectroscopy during transient anoxia (inspired oxygen fraction = 0.0 for 105 seconds) in the newborn piglet brain. By collecting high quality 31P spectra every 10 seconds, it was possible to resolve the delay between the onset of anoxia and the fall in PCr and to show that the CuA centre of cytochrome oxidase reduced simultaneously with the fall in PCr. From these observations it is concluded that, at normoxia, oxygen tension at the mitochondrial level is substantially above a critical value at which oxidative metabolism becomes oxygen dependent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total circulatory arrest in deep hypothermia, which is used in corrective surgery of complex cardiovascular malformations, has been said to cause brain injury. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a new non-invasive method that potentially monitors changes in cerebral oxygenation and tissue oxygen utilisation. The aim of this experimental study in rabbits was to evaluate the change in intravascular and intracellular oxygenation patterns during cooling, deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and rewarming using a commercially available NIRS-cerebral oximeter. METHODS Ten New Zealand White male rabbits (weight, 3.1+/-0.25 kg BW) were included in this study. All animals underwent cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), cooling to a rectal temperature below 15 degrees C, 60 min of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) followed by reperfusion and rewarming. Cerebral oxyhaemoglobin (HbO2), deoxyhaemoglobin (HHb) and cytochrome oxidase aa3 (CytOxaa3) concentrations were continuously measured during the entire procedure using the Cerebral RedOx Monitor 2020 (Criticon cerebral redox monitor 2020, Johnson & Johnson Medical). Total haemoglobin concentration (tHb) and regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) values were calculated by integrated algorithm. RESULTS In all animals an initial increase of oxygenated haemoglobin (HbO2, rSO2) and a fall in deoxygenated haemoglobin (HHb) were found during cooling on bypass. A slight decrease in CytOxaa3 signal was observed in response to initial cooling. Variation in intravascular haemoglobin oxygenation parameters (HbO2, HHb) were related to haemodynamic changes associated with fluid loading, initiation and termination of CPB, bypass flow rate and cooling and rewarming. When the pump flow was stopped all NIRS parameters, except the HHb value, decreased precipitously during the DHCA-period (P<0.01). After reperfusion and rewarming, all haemoglobin oxygen saturation readings returned nearly to pre-CPB levels (P=0.09), but the CytOxaa3 was still significantly lower than the pre-CPB levels (P<0.05). CONCLUSION The change in the NIRS-derived haemoglobin oxygenation parameters may reflect physiological changes in systemic and cerebral haemodynamics. CytOxaa3 values may represent related effects on cellular oxygenation. Thus, continuous, real-time NIRS-monitoring may identify critical periods with inadequate brain tissue oxygenation, particularly during DHCA. The neurological implications of the observed changes in NIRS oxygenation parameters, however, require further quantitative morphological evaluation of the brain in animals surviving a longer reperfusion and observation period.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy assessment of cytochrome oxygenation could be a valuable technique to monitor cerebral intraneuronal oxygen delivery during cardiopulmonary bypass. However, the validity of the cytochrome signal has been questioned as it could easily be overwhelmed by the Hb signal. Five- to six-week-old control piglets (n = 5) underwent cardiopulmonary bypass at 37 degrees C. Study animals (n = 10) received 100 mg/kg of sodium cyanide to uncouple cytochrome from HB: Hematocrit was then decreased in steps of 5% from 35 to 5% with crystalloid hemodilution. In study piglets, the initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass was associated with oxygenated Hb increasing from 0 to 62.9 +/- 25.6 microM times the differential path-length factor, and oxidized cytochrome a,a3 increasing to 1.9 +/- 1.8 microM times the differential path-length factor. Cyanide caused oxygenated Hb to increase further to 132.3 +/- 48.9 microM times the differential path-length factor, and oxidized cytochrome c decreased to -7.0 +/- 2.6 microM times the differential path-length factor as anticipated, confirming uncoupling of electron transport. However, hemodilution subsequently resulted in linear decreases in oxidized cytochrome a,a3 (F = 8.57, p < 0.001) suggesting important cross-talk between the Hb and cytochrome signals as cytochrome is only intracellular. In control piglets, tissue oxygenation index showed a positive correlation with pump flow (r = 0.986, p = 0.013). The cytochrome signal as presently measured by near-infrared spectroscopy is highly dependent on hematocrit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is used to monitor cerebral oxygenation during cardiac surgery. However, interpretation of the signals is controversial. The aim of the study was to determine which NIRS variable best correlated with brain damage as assessed by animal behavior and neurohistologic score and to compare the accuracy of NIRS and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in predicting brain injury. METHODS Forty 5-week-old piglets underwent 60 minutes of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) at 15 degrees C. Changes in brain adenosine triphosphate (ATP), phosphocreatine (PCr), and intracellular pH (pHi) were determined by MRS and correlated to changes in oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO2), deoxygenated hemoglobin (Hb), and oxidized cytochrome a,a3 (CytOx) NIRS signals. Brains were fixed on day 4 and examined using a neurohistologic score. RESULTS Reductions in CytOx and HbO2 values were correlated closely with decreases in ATP, PCr, and pHi. The changes in CytOx and PCr showed the strongest correlation (r = 0.623). Maximal CytOx reduction during DHCA of more than -25 microM * differential pathlength factor (DPF) predicted brain damage with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 75%. The histologic score was also correlated with a decrease in ATP (r = -0.52 for CytOx; r = -0.32 for ATP); HbO2, PCr, and pHi showed no correlations. CONCLUSIONS Reduction in CytOx correlates with decreased brain energy state and predicts histologic brain injury after DHCA with a high sensitivity. These data suggest that the level of CytOx could be a very important predictor of brain damage during DHCA.

Abstract
Changes in hemoglobin oxygenation and oxidation state of the CuA centre of cytochrome oxidase were measured with full spectral near infrared spectroscopy simultaneously with phosphorus metabolites using nuclear magnetic resonance 31P spectroscopy at high time resolution (10 seconds) during transient anoxia (FiO2 = 0.0 for 105 seconds) in the newborn piglet brain. During the onset of anoxia, there was no change in either phosphocreatine (PCr) concentration or the oxidation state of the CuA centre of cytochrome oxidase until there was a substantial fall in cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation, at which point the CuA centre reduced simultaneously with the decline in PCr. At a later time during the anoxia, intracellular pH decreased rapidly, consistent with a fall in cerebral metabolic rate for O2 and reduced flux through the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The simultaneous reduction of CuA and decline in PCr can be explained in terms of the effects of the falling mitochondrial electrochemical potential. From these observations, it is concluded that, at normoxia, oxidative phosphorylation and the oxidation state of the components of the electron transport chain are independent of cerebral oxygenation and that the reduction in the CuA signal occurs when oxygen tension limits the capacity of oxidative phosphorylation to maintain the phosphorylation potential.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate metabolic and hemodynamic responses in two fetal tissues, hindlimb muscle and brain, to an episode of acute moderate asphyxia. Near-infrared spectroscopy was used to measure changes in total hemoglobin concentration ([tHb]) and the redox state of cytochrome oxidase (COX) simultaneously in the brain and hindlimb of near-term unanesthetized fetal sheep in utero. Oxygen delivery (DO(2)) to, and consumption (VO(2)) by, each tissue was derived from the arteriovenous difference in oxygen content and blood flow, measured by implanted flow probes. One hour of moderate asphyxia (n = 11), caused by occlusion of the maternal common internal iliac artery, led to a significant fall in DO(2) to both tissues and to a significant drop in VO(2) by the head. This was associated with an initial fall in redox state COX in the leg but an increase in the brain. [tHb], and therefore blood volume, fell in the leg and increased in the brain. These data suggest the presence of a fetal metabolic response to hypoxia, which, in the brain, occurs rapidly and could be neuroprotective.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Perinatal hypoxic-ischemic injuries can trigger a cascade of events leading to delayed deterioration and cell death several hours later. The objective of this study was to characterize the cerebral blood flow responses and the changes in extracellular glucose and lactate during the delayed phases of injury and to determine their relationships with the pathophysiological events after hypoxic-ischemic injury. METHODS Two groups of near-term chronically instrumented fetal sheep were subjected to 30 minutes of cerebral hypoperfusion. In the first group, regional cerebral blood flow was measured over the next 24 hours with radiolabeled microspheres. In the second, cortical extracellular glucose and lactate were measured by microdialysis. Parietal electrocorticographic activity and cortical impedance were recorded continuously in both groups, and the extent of neuronal loss was determined histologically at 72 hours after injury. RESULTS Cerebral blood flow was transiently impaired in the cortex during reperfusion, whereas during the delayed phase, there was a marked increase in cerebral blood flow. The severity of cortical neuronal loss was related to the degree of hypoperfusion in the immediate reperfusion period and inversely related to the magnitude of the delayed hyperperfusion. Cortical extracellular lactate was elevated after injury, and both glucose and lactate secondarily increased during the delayed phase of injury. CONCLUSIONS The delayed phase is accompanied by a period of hyperperfusion that may protect marginally viable tissue.

Abstract
Cerebral intracellular energy production (cerebral bioenergetics) via oxidative phosphorylation and the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is critical to cerebral function. To test the hypothesis that patients with chronic stable hypoxia also generate neuronal ATP via an anaerobic metabolism, we studied the changes in cerebral (31)P magnetic resonance spectra ((31)P MRS) in patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and compared the results with MR spectra from similar areas of the brain in control subjects. Ten patients with stable COPD (age: 65 +/- 9 yr [mean +/- SD]; Pa(O(2)): 8.8 +/- 1.2 kPa; Pa(CO(2)): 6.1 +/- 0.8 kPa; pH 7.42 +/- 0.03, and FEV(1): 41 +/- 20% predicted) and five healthy volunteers underwent cerebral (31)P MRS (TR-5,000 ms) at 1.5 T. When COPD patients were compared with controls, the percentage MR signal with respect to total MR-detectable phosphorus-containing metabolites was increased from inorganic phosphate (Pi) (7.1 +/- 1. 3% versus 3.9 +/- 0.7%, p = 0.0001) and phosphomonoesters (PMEs) (9. 4 +/- 1.2% versus 6.9 +/- 0.3%, p = 0.0001), whereas the signal from phosphodiesters was reduced (34.8 +/- 3.2 versus 40.4 +/- 3.3%, p = 0.015). The ratios of Pi to betaATP (0.8 +/- 0.2 versus 0.4 +/- 0.1, p = 0.001) and of PME to betaATP (1.0 +/- 0.2 versus 0.7 +/- 0.1, p = 0.015) were increased, but the phosphocreatine-to-Pi ratio (2.1 +/- 0.6 versus 3.2 +/- 0.6, p = 0.01) was reduced in patients as compared with controls. This alteration in phosphorus-containing metabolites within cerebral cells provides evidence of extensive use of anaerobic metabolism in hypoxic COPD patients.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a relatively new technology that offers the enormous advantage of making measurements in vivo of changes in cerebral hemodynamics and oxygenation. Because NIRS is noninvasive and portable, it can provide real-time measurements of these changes at the bedside. Thus NIRS is ideally suited to the study of many physiological and pathological processes affecting the brain, particularly in the infant or young child in the intensive care unit or operating room. This review outlines the basic principles, advantages, and limitations of the current state of NIRS technology. An emphasis is placed on the animal and clinical studies that are relevant to the field of child neurology, with an eye to the future evolution and potential applications of this promising technique.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Validation of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-measured changes in cerebral blood volume (deltaCBV) and cytochrome aa3 (deltaCytaa3) as estimators of changes in brain perfusion and oxygenation in the newborn lamb during hypoxia and hypercarbia, and additional hypotension. METHODS AND MATERIALS In 33 newborn lambs brain perfusion assessed by carotid artery blood flow (deltaQcar: ml/min)and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (deltaCMRO2: ml O2/min) were related to NIRS-derived deltaCBV (ml/100 g) and deltaCytaa3 (microM) during combined hypoxia and hypercarbia and additional hypotension. Combined hypoxia and hypercapnia was induced by ventilation with 6-8% of O2 and 10% of CO2 during 30 min, and additional hypotension ( < 35 mmHg for 5 min) was induced by careful withdrawal of blood. RESULTS CBV increased during hypoxia and hypercarbia, decreased during additional hypotension and was related to deltaQcar: (0.009 ml/100 g change per ml/min Qcar: P < 0.0001). Cytaa3 increased during hypoxia and hypercarbia, decreased during subsequent additional hypotension andshowed a reverse relationship with deltaCMRO2 (-1.65 microM change per ml O2/min CMRO2: P <0.0001). Cytaa3 remained above baseline during reperfusion. CONCLUSIONS deltaCBV estimates changes in brain perfusion, but overestimates brain perfusion during hypotension. The pattern of deltaCytaa3 suggests less oxygen utilisation by brain tissue during hypoxia and subsequent reperfusion.

Abstract
The brain requires high amounts of energy for cellular homeostasis and neurological functions. This energy is mainly supplied by the oxidation of glucose, although other substrates may be used in critical situations. The capacity of the brain to conserve energy is illustrated by flow metabolism coupling, and by the separation between functional and basal activity. The evaluation of cerebral metabolism is defined as the assessment of energy substrates availability and utilization. This evaluation may be performed in physiological or pathological conditions, at a regional or at the global level, at rest or during activation processes. The main techniques discussed in this review include monitoring of venous blood in the jugular bulb, cerebral microdialysis, near infrared spectroscopy, cerebral oximetry using microprobe electrodes, positron emission tomography, magnetic resonance and the magnetoencephalography.
