Background: Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) testing with CO2 challenge is used clinically as a measure of cerebrovascular reserve. However it is not known whether CVR measures the same physiological process as spontaneous cerebral autoregulation (CA).Purpose: To compare CVR with CA in healthy Volunteers, using continuous monitoring of cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) and arterial blood pressure (ABP).Methods: We prospectively studied CVR and CA in 18 healthy volunteers. CVR was assessed using mean CBFV changes after 5% CO2 inhalation. CA was determined by transfer function analysis to derive the phase shift between spontaneous ABP and CBFV fluctuations at 0.1 Hz.Results: CO2 inhalation produced a significant decrease in phase shift from 37.9 +/- 13.8 degrees to 21.0 +/- 7.2 degrees (p
