cerebral hypoxia, anoxia and ischemia in mice and rats.
Monitoring of brain tissue P[O.sub.2] in traumatic brain injury: Effect of
cerebral hypoxia on outcome.
Dublin Coroners Court heard the cause of death was recorded as
cerebral hypoxia, which involves a reduced supply of oxygen to the brain.
Once an initial injury to the brain has occurred, the cascade of events that follows includes altered cerebral perfusion, increased intracranial pressure, and
cerebral hypoxia, which all increase the risk of ischemia.
The coroner found she died drom
cerebral hypoxia following a cardiac arrest, adding: "I am satisfied the surgery was carried out to a very high standard."
Continuous brain tissue oxygen monitoring is a method to measure oxygen delivery and identify
cerebral hypoxia and ischemia in patients with brain injury, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, malignant stroke, or other patients at risk for secondary brain injury.
Coroner Jim Kitson recorded the cause of death as
cerebral hypoxia [lack of oxygen to the brain] and pneumonia after the baby fell into the pool.
A correlation was found between CBF (CPP), the Sjv[O.sub.2], and the Pbt[O.sub.2] monitors in the prevention of
cerebral hypoxia (Kiening, et al.
A postmortem revealed he died of
cerebral hypoxia due to obstruction of the airwaves.

She added that Phipps suffered
cerebral hypoxia and that a urine test found cocaine and benzodiazopine in his system.
Cerebral hypoxia and ischemia are two of the most important causes of secondary injury after brain trauma.
