Regional brain blood flow and cerebral hemispheric oxygen consumption during acute hypoxaemia in the llama fetus

Unlike fetal animals of lowland species, the llama fetus does not increase its cerebral blood flow during an episode of acute hypoxaemia. This study tested the hypothesis that the fetal llama brain maintains cerebral hemispheric O(2) consumption by increasing cerebral O(2) extraction rather than dec...
