1 Pressure reactivity: Relationship between ICP and arterial blood pressure (ABP). Pressure-reactivity index, computational methods. Clinical examples. Optimization of cerebral perfusion pressure: Relationship between Pressure Reactivity and CPP. Does optimal CPP exist always? Implications on management.

2 Simultaneous analysis of slow changes in arterial pressure and ICP System with disturbed pressurereactivity Pressurereactivity works properly

5 PRx is a rather noisy parameter Some smoothing is required PRx Smoothed PRx Thanks to Dr.P.Smielewski

6 Coherence Unknown origin of micp fluctuations Low coherence between ABP and ICP suggests limited contribution from ABP, however it could also be an evidence of strong nonlinearities MAP MICP Frequency [Hz] 1 Hz Thanks to Dr.P.Smielewski

7 Detrended Thanks to Dr.P.Smielewski Confounding factors: trends MAP MICP MAP_dt MICP_dt MICP PRx = < 0! MAP MICP_dt PRx = 0.54 > 0! MAP_dt

22 Advancing intracranial hypertension- fatal outcome

23 Optimal CPP- oriented therapy PRx PRx Mx Both PRx and Mx show the U-shape relationship with mean CPP (200 patients!). This indicate that for low CPP and CPP above 90 mm Hg both autoregulation and pressure reactivity are defective. There is an optimal CPP from 70 to 90 mm Hg which helps to restore vascular functions after head injury a.) a.)

25 If we can see it in statistical evaluation of big series of patients, can we see it in individual cases? 4 6 hours moving window The chart shows that lowest PRx values corresponding to the strongest autoregulation level fall in the CPP range of mmhg Thanks to Dr. P.Smielewski
