Impact of impaired cerebral blood flow autoregulation on electroencephalogram signals in adults undergoing propofol anaesthesia: a pilot study

Résumé

Background: Cerebral autoregulation actively maintains cerebral blood flow over a range of MAPs. During general anaesthesia, this mechanism may not compensate for reductions in MAP leading to brain hypoperfusion. Cerebral autoregulation can be assessed using the mean flow index derived from Doppler measurements of average blood velocity in the middle cerebral artery, but this is impractical for routine monitoring within the operating room. Here, we investigate the possibility of using the EEG as a proxy measure for a loss of cerebral autoregulation, determined by the mean flow index. Methods: Thirty-six patients (57.5 [44.25; 66.5] yr; 38.9% women, non-emergency neuroradiology surgery) anaesthetised using propofol were prospectively studied. Continuous recordings of MAP, average blood velocity in the middle cerebral artery, EEG, and regional cerebral oxygen saturation were made. Poor cerebral autoregulation was defined as a mean flow index greater than 0.3. Results: Eighteen patients had preserved cerebral autoregulation, and 18 had altered cerebral autoregulation. The two groups had similar ages, MAPs, and average blood velocities in the middle cerebral artery. Patients with altered cerebral autoregulation exhibited a significantly slower alpha peak frequency (9.
