Cerebral blood flow sensitivity to CO2 measured with steady-state and Read's rebreathing methods.
The ventilatory response to carbon dioxide (CO2) measured by the steady-state method is lower than that measured by Read's rebreathing method. A change in end-tidal P CO2 (PET CO2) results in a lower increment change in brain tissue P CO2 (Pt CO2) in the steady-state than with rebreathing: sinc...
