The maintenance of cerebral perfusion is critical. Cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) is the difference between out flow and in flow and is the driving pressure for cerebral blood flow (CBF). The formula for CPP is: CPP = MAP – ICP Therefore, CPP is used as a measure of CBF.

Cerebral circulation is vulnerable to conditions that increase intracranial volume. Normal intracranial pressure (ICP) is usually less than 15 mmHg and is determined by the volume of the brain parenchyma (1300 mL in an adult), CSF (100–150 mL) and intravascular blood (100–150 mL).

This is termed “autoregulation” and ensures that brain tissue is adequately perfused with oxygen and that wastes are removed. Autoregulation of CBF has a functional CPP range between 50 and 150 mmHg. When CPP falls below 50 mmHg, autoregulation is diminished. The major regulatory mechanisms for maintaining adequate CBF are the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), blood pressure and blood pH.

Hypotension and/or hypoventilation results in an increase in PaCO2 and a decrease in pH (acidosis); as a consequence, cerebral vasodilation occurs in an attempt to increase CBF and deliver more oxygen. Conversely, hypertension, hyperventilation and an increase in pH (alkalosis) can cause cerebral vasoconstriction and a reduction in CBF. Hypocapnia is capable of reducing CBF by 4% for each mmHg change in PaCO2. Baroreceptors constantly monitor systemic blood pressure and provide a positive feedback loop. Regulation of systemic blood pressure is achieved by arterial vasodilation OR vasoconstriction, thus altering peripheral vascular resistance (PVR) in an effort to maintain adequate CPP and blood flow.

Initially, circulating CSF and blood volume (principally venous) are reduced but as the mass size is increased, the space- occupying lesion compresses brain tissue and reduces CBF due to increased ICP. As ICP rises outside the normal range, autoregulation is lost, and perfusion to the brain becomes totally dependent upon CPP – so MAP must increase to overcome a higher ICP Rapid rises in ICP can lead to compression of the brain tissue and herniation where the brain tissue itself is displaced and moves towards the foramen magnum. The common phenomenon known as the Cushing reflex/triad —hypertension, bradycardia and irregular respiration—is a direct result of a rapid rise in ICP.

When there is an elevated ICP due to for example intracranial bleeding or oedema, cerebral vasculature will be increasingly compressed with rising ICP, leading to cerebral ischemia. To combat this the sympathetic nervous system is activated. The increased sympathetic tone will primary constrict the arterioles of the body, mediated by alpha 1 adrenergic receptors. Since our mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) is the product of cardiac output (CO) and systemic vascular resistance (SVR), the MAP will rise, in other words, the patient will develop hypertension. An increased pulse pressure (difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure) is also seen, because primary the systolic blood pressure rises, whereas the diastolic pressure remains the same. The cerebral vessels are not affected by this vasoconstriction, protecting the brain form ischemia. The hypertension seen in patients with increased ICP is part of the cerebral autoregulation, trying to keep cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) relatively constant, even though the ICP increases. CPP is the difference between MAP and ICP (CPP=MAP-ICP), so increasing MAP by contracting arterioles makes sense when the ICP is elevated. The brain also shunts away cerebrospinal fluid in order the combat the rising ICP. If these and other compensatory mechanisms are inadequate, ICP will continue to rise, reducing CPP to levels leading to global ischemia of brain tissue. When ICP equals MAP, the CPP will be 0, and there will be no circulation to the brain, a state known as brain tamponade.

The initial sympathetic tone will initially cause tachycardia, and increased contractility of the heart mediated primarily by beta 2 adrenoreceptors. This will increase cardiac output, and thus increasing MAP together with the increased systemic vascular resistance. The increased MAP will stretch and activate the high pressure Baroreceptors baroreceptors in the aortic arch and carotid sinus, which via the vagus and glossopharyngeal nerve respectably, will signal that there is and increased MAP to the cardiovascular control center in & medulla oblongata. When there is an elevated MAP sympathetic tone will be reduced Brain herniation and parasympathetic tone will be increased, leading to bradycardia. The signal to the arterioles to constrict, due to the high ICP, remains leaving the patient with both hypertension and bradycardia.

The irregular breathing pattern seen inpatients with elevated ICP is due to inadequate function of the respiratory control centre located in the medulla oblongata Reduced cerebral perfusion pressure and or direct damage to this structure, leads to neuronal dysfunction Cheyne-Stokes respirations are the common pattern seen in Cushing’s triad This material has been reproduced and communicated to you by or on behalf of Flinders University in Accordance with section 113P of the Copyright Act 1968 (the Act).
