This systematic scoping review explores the impact of burst suppression (BS) on cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral autoregulation (CA) in animals and humans. The majority of studies suggest that BS decreases CBF and cerebral metabolism, even with constant mean arterial pressure. The effect of BS on CA during stress periods is variable.
Background: Burst suppression (BS) is an electroencephalography (EEG) pattern in which there are isoelectric periods interspersed with bursts of cortical activity. Targeting BS through anaesthetic administration is used as a tool in the neurointensive care unit but its relationship with cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral autoregulation (CA) is unclear. We performed a systematic scoping review investigating the effect of BS on CBF and CA in animals and humans. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, BIOSIS, EMBASE, SCOPUS and Cochrane library from inception to August 2022. The data that were collected included study population, methods to induce and measure BS, and the effect on CBF and CA. Results: Overall, there were 66 studies that were included in the final results, 41 of which examined animals, 24 of which examined humans, and 1 of which examined both. In almost all the studies, BS was induced using an anaesthetic. In most of the animal and human studies, BS was associated with a decrease in CBF and cerebral metabolism, even if the mean arterial pressure remained constant. The effect on CA during periods of stress (hypercapnia, hypothermia, etc.) was variable. Discussion: BS is associated with a reduction in cerebral metabolic demand and CBF, which may explain its usefulness in patients with brain injury. More evidence is needed to elucidate the connection between BS and CA.
