Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography is a noninvasive, reproducible technique that allows the assessment of CO2-induced cerebral vasomotor reactivity. We investigated the effect of CO2 changes on cerebral blood flow velocity in patients with severe intracranial hemorrhage and evaluated the relation between CO2 reactivity, intracranial pressure, and outcome.
