Title Walsh & Hoyt: Factors Other than Autoregulation Affecting Cerebral Blood Flow
Creator Robert A. Egan, MD
Affiliation Providence Willamette Falls Medical Center
Subject Vascular Diseases; Anatomy; Physiology; Cerebrovascular System; Other Factors Affecting Cerebral Blood Flow
Description Although the CBF depends on cerebral perfusion pressure and the resistance of the cerebrovascular tree, flow can vary with changes in the viscosity of the blood. Blood viscosity rises exponentially when the hematocrit increases and also is raised when the gamma-globulin and fibrinogen concentrations in plasma are elevated.
