Continuous intra-aortic balloon occlusion has been reported to improve cerebral blood flow during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) but not to ameliorate the impaired blood recirculation occurring after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Volume expansion with hypertonic solutions may improve recovery of brain function by enhancing post-resuscitation cerebral blood flow. We hypothesised that the combination of these treatments with open-chest CPR would improve cerebral blood flow during CPR, and attenuate post-resuscitation flow disturbances. In 32 anaesthetised piglets, catheters were placed for haemodynamic and blood gas monitoring. Open-chest CPR was initiated after 9 min of ventricular fibrillation. The piglets were treated either with 3 ml kg(-1) hypertonic saline and dextran (HSD) (n = 10), HSD and balloon occlusion (n = 10) or with normal saline (n = 12). After 7 min of CPR, internal defibrillatory shocks were administered to restore spontaneous circulation. Haemodynamic variables, continuous cerebral cortical blood flow, cerebral tissue pH and pCO2 and blood gas parameters were measured during CPR and up to 210 min after ROSC. Higher cerebral perfusion pressure was found in the balloon-HSD group during CPR. This group exhibited less arterial hypertension immediately after ROSC compared with the other groups. Thereafter, a fairly rapid decrease of the perfusion pressures was observed in all groups reaching a minimum level approximately 30 min after ROSC. Cerebral cortical blood flow was significantly higher and cerebral oxygen extraction ratio significantly lower in the balloon-HSD group during CPR, but not after ROSC. In conclusion, a combination of intra-aortic balloon occlusion and HSD administration improves cerebral blood flow and brain oxygen supply during experimental open-chest CPR. In contrast, cerebral blood flow after ROSC was not shown to be influenced by this treatment.
