Traditionally, it was believed that a constant CBF is expected in healthy adults within a mean Acetazolamide test evaluating cerebral autoregulation Stroke
Acetazolamide is a diuretic and carbonic anhydrase inhibitor medication used to treat several illnesses, as summarized below
Acetazolamide is a non-competitive inhibitor of
The carbonic anhydrase inhibitor acetazolamide diminishes cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production, reduces ICP in healthy animals, and is beneficial for idiopathic
Compared with placebo, acetazolamide reduced middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity (11%) and improved dynamic cerebral autoregulation after 9 h of hypoxia
Our main conclusions are as follows: 1) the increase in minute ventilation seen with acetazolamide is the result of increased CCR, but not PCR, output; 2) this increase
