Abstract:
PURPOSE:We present the results of the visualisation of radial oxygen gradients in rats' cortices and their potential use in neurocritical management. METHODS:PO₂ maps of the cortex of ten sedated, intubated and controlled ventilated Wistar rats were obtained with a camera (SensiMOD, PCO, Kelheim, Germany). Those pictures were analysed and edited by a custom-made software. A virtual matrix, designed to evaluate the cortical O₂ partial pressure, was placed vertically to the artery under investigation, and afterwards multiple regions of interest were measured (width 10 pixels, length 15-50 pixels). The results showed a map of the cerebral oxygenation, which allowed us to calculate radial oxygen gradients over arterioles. Three groups were defined according to the level of the arterial pO₂: PaO₂ < 80, PaO₂ 80-120 and PaO₂ > 120. Gradients were analysed from the middle of the vessel to its border (1), from the border into the parenchyma next to the vessel (2) and a combination of both (3). RESULTS:Gradient 1 showed significantly different cortical pO₂ values between the three different groups. The mean pO₂ values were 2.62, 5.29 and 5.82 mmHg/mm. Gradient 2 measured 0.56, 0.90 and 1.02 mmHg/mm respectively. Gradient 3 showed significant results between the groups with values of 3.18, 6.19 and 6.84 mmHg/mm. CONCLUSION:Using these gradients, it is possible to describe and compare the distribution of oxygen to the brain parenchyma. With the presented technique, it is possible to detect pO₂ changes in the oxygen supply of the brain cortex.
