Cerebral vascular effects of hypovolemia and dopamine infusions: a study in newborn piglets

Abstract

Despite widespread use, effects of volume boluses and dopamine in hypotensive newborn infants remain controversial. We aimed to elucidate if hypovolemia alone impairs cerebral autoregulation (CA) and if dopamine affects cerebral vasculature.
