Brain Oxygenation with a Non ‐vasoactive Perfluorocarbon Emulsion in a Rat Model of Traumatic Brain Injury

ConclusionsAlthough Oxycyte did not cause cerebral vasoconstriction, its use at the dose tested while breathing 100% O2 did not improve PbtO2 following TBI. However, Oxycyte treatment while breathing a lower enriched oxygen concentration may improve PbtO2 after TBI.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
