Transit Time Distribution

We recently extended the classic flow–diffusion equation, which relates blood flow to tissue oxygenation, to take capillary transit time heterogeneity ( CTH) into account. Realizing that cerebral oxygen availability depends on both cerebral blood flow ( CBF) and capillary flow patterns, we have speculated that CTH may be actively regulated and that changes in the capillary morphology and function, as well as in blood rheology, may be involved in the pathogenesis of conditions such as dementia and ischemia-reperfusion injury. The first extended flow–diffusion equation involved simplifying assumptions which may not hold in tissue. Here, we explicitly incorporate the effects of oxygen metabolism on tissue oxygen tension and extraction efficacy, and assess the extent to which the type of capillary transit time distribution affects the overall effects of CTH on flow–metabolism coupling reported earlier. After incorporating tissue oxygen metabolism, our model predicts changes in oxygen consumption and tissue oxygen tension during functional activation in accordance with literature reports. We find that, for large CTH values, a blood flow increase fails to cause significant improvements in oxygen delivery, and can even decrease it; a condition of malignant CTH. These results are found to be largely insensitive to the choice of the transit time distribution.

Background Perioperative beta-blockade and anemia are independent predictors of increased stroke and mortality by undefined mechanisms. This study investigated the effect of beta-blockade on cerebral tissue oxygen delivery in an experimental model of blood loss and fluid resuscitation (hemodilution). Methods Anesthetized rats were treated with metoprolol (3 mg x kg) or saline before undergoing hemodilution with pentastarch (1:1 blood volume exchange, 30 ml x kg). Outcomes included cardiac output, cerebral blood flow, and brain (PBrO2) and kidney (PKO2) tissue oxygen tension. Hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) protein levels were assessed by Western blot. Systemic catecholamines, erythropoietin, and angiotensin II levels were measured. Results Hemodilution increased heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output (60%), and cerebral blood flow (50%), thereby maintaining PBrO2 despite an approximately 50% reduction in blood oxygen content (P < 0.05 for all). By contrast, PKO2 decreased (50%) under the same conditions (P < 0.05). Beta-blockade reduced baseline heart rate (20%) and abolished the compensatory increase in cardiac output after hemodilution (P < 0.05). This attenuated the cerebral blood flow response and reduced PBrO2 (50%), without further decreasing PKO2. Cerebral HIF-1alpha protein levels were increased in beta-blocked hemodiluted rats relative to hemodiluted controls (P < 0.05). Systemic catecholamine and erythropoietin levels increased comparably after hemodilution in both groups, whereas angiotensin II levels increased only after beta-blockade and hemodilution. Conclusions Cerebral tissue oxygen tension is preferentially maintained during hemodilution, relative to the kidney, despite elevated systemic catecholamines. Acute beta-blockade impaired the compensatory cardiac output response to hemodilution, resulting in a reduction in cerebral tissue oxygen tension and increased expression of HIF-1alpha.

Doppler Flowmetry

Background Vasopressors, such as norepinephrine, are frequently used to treat perioperative hypotension. Increasing perfusion pressure with norepinephrine may increase blood flow in regions at risk. However, the resulting vasoconstriction could deteriorate microcirculatory blood flow in the intestinal tract and kidneys. This animal study was designed to investigate the effects of treating perioperative hypotension with norepinephrine during laparotomy with low fluid volume replacement. Methods Twenty anesthetized and ventilated pigs were randomly assigned to a control or treatment (norepinephrine) group. Both groups received 3 ml · kg⁻¹ · h⁻¹ Ringer's lactate solution. In addition, the norepinephrine group received norepinephrine to stepwise increase blood pressure to 65 and 75 mmHg. Regional blood flow was measured in the splanchnic arteries. In the small bowel and colon, microcirculatory blood flow was measured using laser Doppler flowmetry. Intestinal tissue oxygen tension was measured with intramural Clark-type electrodes. Results Hepatosplanchnic and kidney blood flow remained unchanged after reversal of arterial hypotension to a mean arterial pressure of 75 mmHg with norepinephrine. For the norepinephrine group versus the control group, the mean ± SD microcirculatory blood flow in the jejunum (96 ± 41% vs. 93 ± 18%) and colon (98 ± 19% vs. 97 ± 28%) and intestinal tissue oxygen tension (jejunum, 45 ± 13 vs. 43 ± 5 mmHg; colon, 50 ± 10 vs. 45 ± 8 mmHg) were comparable. Conclusions In this model of abdominal surgery in which clinical conditions were imitated as close as possible, treatment of perioperative hypotension with norepinephrine had no adverse effects on microcirculatory blood flow or tissue oxygen tension in the intestinal tract.
