Cns - pepsi00
#1
When there is high levels of pc02,the central receptors will vasocontrict the peripheral. But is the blood flow in the cerebral vasodilated? Can someone confirm me on this?

Thank You

cerebral vasodilatation occurs following INcrease in PCO2

you are constricting peripheral to conserve for the brain's supply makes sense Smile
the greatest invention God and miracle of birth can make, the brain!!!!!Amazing

Werid thing is, in the state of hypoxic condition, our pulmonary vasocontrict in the time where it needs the most demand of o2, odd. Leading to hypoventilation-respiratory acidosis.
Then we got to wait,for the kidney to kick in ahhhhh time consuming process aint it!
