Conclusions and Speculation Conclusions and Speculation
• The slope of the relationship between CBF vs. BP increases with increasing PaCO2
• The cerebral circulation becomes progressively pressure passive with increasing PaCO2
• We speculate that the continued use of permissive hypercapnia during the early neonatal period in VLBW infants may be associated with brain injury, and its use should be reconsidered
