The effects of resuscitation with 21 or 100% O2 on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were studied in 19 newborn pigs anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium. They were ventilated with 8% O2 until base excess reached -20 mmol/l and then were randomly reoxygenated with 21% O2 (n = 10) or 100% O2 (n = 9) for 25 min followed by 21% O2. Mean duration of hypoxemia in the two groups was 57 +/- 6 (SE) and 59 +/- 6 min, respectively. CBF determined by radioactive microspheres was significantly increased in all areas in both groups after 5 and 20 min of reoxygenation. At 5 min of reoxygenation forebrain O2 uptake (CMRo2) had increased significantly compared with baseline values in the 21% O2 group (2.5 +/- 0.1 to 3.2 +/- 0.2 ml.100 g-1.min-1) but not in the 100% O2 group. There were, however, no significant differences between the two groups in CBF or CMRo2 at any time, and by 60 min of reoxygenation both had returned to baseline levels. SEPs were not significantly different in the two groups. We conclude that, as judged by CBF, CMRo2, and SEP, 21% O2 is not inferior to 100% O2 when hypoxemic newborn pigs are reoxygenated.
