Retrograde Cerebral Perfusion: Causes, Diagnosis, And Management
Retrograde cerebral perfusion involves the reversal of blood flow in the cerebral venous system, typically due to impaired venous outflow. It encompasses global perfusion in severe hypotensive events and regional perfusion in cases of local venous obstructions. Diagnostic tools include transcranial Doppler (TCD) to measure cerebral blood flow velocity (CFV), calculate cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP),…
