antegrade cerebral perfusion


Explanation:
It could relate to this treatment

Data suggests that antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) when used during DHCA might reduce ischemic brain injury; whether ACP provides improved systemic perfusion is unclear. Our hypothesis was that DHCA+ACP would offer better systemic tissue perfusion and this could be monitored using a VLS probe.

Notes to answerer
Asker: That's what I have, but I don't think it's right. *cerebro vasculair accident* is in layman's terms a stroke. My thought is that this is a *right cerebrovascular accident*, but don't know what a.c.p. stands for in Dutch
