The present investigation demonstrates the utility of the laser Doppler flowmeter to provide a measure of cochlear blood flow dynamics. Cochlear and cutaneous blood flow were compared with arterial blood pressure during and following exposure to Angiotensin II, 5% carbon monoxide, 100% oxygen, mannitol, and saline. The observations indicate that: 1) cochlear blood flow generally parallels cutaneous blood flow; however, 2) when cutaneous beds vasoconstrict (e.g., AII, alpha-agonists), cochlear… CONTINUE READING
