Cerebral blood flow and brain function during hypotension and shock

A G Kovách, P Sándor

    Annual Review of Physiology
    |January 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Brain functions decline during prolonged shock due to impaired autoregulation. Central nervous system servo-control failure contributes to irreversible shock and homeostatic imbalance, highlighting the critical role of brain regulation.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Physiology
    • Pathophysiology

    Background:

    • Autoregulation typically maintains vital brain functions.
    • Prolonged shock states challenge these regulatory mechanisms.
    • Cerebrocortical and hypothalamic functions are particularly vulnerable.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review evidence on brain function impairment during shock.
    • To investigate the role of central nervous system servo-control in shock.
    • To explore mechanisms of brain damage in shock.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing research results on shock and brain function.
    • Analysis of autoregulatory mechanisms in hypovolemic and other shock conditions.
    • Examination of evidence for central nervous system servo-control inadequacy.

    Main Results:

    • Vital brain functions are impaired during long-lasting shock.
    • Cerebrocortical and hypothalamic regulatory insufficiency contributes to irreversible shock.
    • Regional cerebral microcirculatory defects, including sludge formation, are observed.

    Conclusions:

    • Inadequate central nervous servo-control is a key factor in shock-induced homeostatic failure.
    • Unevenly distributed local brain damage, potentially due to sludge formation, underlies functional impairment.
    • Both generalized and local factors contribute to patchy brain ischemia in shock.
