- We tested the hypothesis that early brain recovery in hypoxic newborn piglets is improved by resuscitating with an O2 supply close to the minimum level required by the newborn piglet brain. Severely hypoxic 2-5-d-old anaesthetized piglets were randomly divided into three resuscitation groups: hypoxaemic (n = 8), 21% O2 (n = 8), and 100% O2 groups (n = 8). The hypoxaemic group was mechanically ventilated with 12-18% O2 adjusted to achieve a cerebral venous O2 saturation of 17-23% (baseline; 45 +/- 1%, mean +/- SEM). During the 2h resuscitation period, extracellular aspartate and glutamate concentrations in the cerebral striatum were higher during hypoxaemic resuscitation (p = 0.044 and p = 0.055, respectively) than during resuscitation with 21% O2 or 100% O2, suggesting an unfavourable accumulation of potent excitotoxins during hypoxaemic resuscitation. The cell membrane Na+,K+-ATPase activity of cerebral cortical tissue after 2 h resuscitation was similar in the three groups (p = 0.30). In conclusion, hypoxaemic resuscitation did not normalize early cerebral metabolic recovery as efficiently as resuscitation with 21% O2 or 100% O2. Resuscitation with 21% O2 was as efficient as resuscitation with 100% O2 in this newborn piglet hypoxia model.

- We tested the hypothesis that controlled hypoxemic resuscitation improves early cerebral metabolic and electrophysiological recovery in hypoxic newborn piglets. Severely hypoxic anesthetized piglets were randomly divided into three resuscitation groups: hypoxemic, 21% O2, and 100% O2 groups (8 in each group). The hypoxemic group was mechanically ventilated with 12-18% O2 adjusted to achieve a cerebral venous O2 saturation of 17-23% (baseline; 45 +/- 1%). Base excess (BE) reached -22 +/- 1 mM at the end of hypoxia. During a 2-h resuscitation period, no significant differences in time to recovery of electroencephalography (EEG), quality of EEG at recovery, or extracellular hypoxanthine concentrations in the cerebral cortex and striatum were found among the groups. BE and plasma hypoxanthine, however, normalized significantly more slowly during controlled hypoxemic resuscitation than during resuscitation with 21 or 100% O2. We conclude that early brain recovery during controlled hypoxemic resuscitation was as efficient as, but not superior to, recovery during resuscitation with 21 or 100% O2. The systemic metabolic recovery from hypoxia, however, was delayed during controlled hypoxemic resuscitation.
