Brief Summary

Cerebral autoregulation is defined by the capacity of the brain to maintain a constant cerebral blood flow (CBF) despite variations of arterial pressure. However, when the arterial pressure is below a critical threshold, cerebral blood decreases. This critical threshold is called the lower limit of cerebral autoregulation (LLA). Cardiopulmonary bypass is a unique environment wherein systemic blood flow is totally controlled by the cardiopulmonary bypass pump. High pump flows combined with low arterial pressures has been shown to not compromise neurologic postoperative outcomes. Our hypothesis is that that LLA may depend on the cardiopulmonary bypass flow, ie the LLA may decrease when the cardiopulmonary bypass flow increases, explaining why low arterial pressure may be well tolerated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • measurement of MAP LLA (mmHg)

    Determination of MAP LLA according to the calculation of the mean velocity index

    15 to 25 min during the procedure

Study Arms (2)

current pump flow (between 2 and 2.4 l/min/m²)

SHAM COMPARATOR

the pump flow will be constant during this randomized phase

Procedure: current versus high pump flow

high pump flow (between 2.6 and 3 l/min/m²)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

the pump flow will be constant during this randomized phase

Procedure: current versus high pump flow

Interventions

during each phase of randomized pump flow, arterial pressure will be increased from 40 to 90 mmHg with vasodilators and/or vasoconstrictors

current pump flow (between 2 and 2.4 l/min/m²)high pump flow (between 2.6 and 3 l/min/m²)
