Aim To assess the association with outcomes of cardiac index (CI) and mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) in comatose patients resuscitated from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).

The presence of any of the following criteria - low cardiac index, high pCO2 gap and low SvO2 - may indicate a poor prognosis with conservative therapy and a substantial mortality benefit from …

Nov 5, 2013 · Assessment and monitoring of hemodynamics is a cornerstone in critically ill patients as hemodynamic alteration may become life-threatening in a few minutes [1, 2]. This study aimed to …

Abbreviations DO2, oxygen delivery; Hb, hemoglobin concentration; SaO2, arterial blood oxygen saturation; SvO2, mixed venous blood oxygen saturation; VO2, oxygen consumption.

Oct 24, 2011 · Abstract Shock is defi ned as global tissue hypoxia secondary to an imbalance between systemic oxygen delivery and oxygen demand. Venous oxygen saturations represent this …

In this prospective observational multi-center study, we determined central venous pressure (CVP), hematocrit, pH, lactate and ScvO2 or SvO2 in a heterogeneous group of critically ill patients early …

In this study we aimed to study the cardiovascular and cardiometabolic effects of treatment with lactate in experimental ischemic CS. In a randomized, blinded design, 20 female pigs (60 kg) were …

function and mortality; and SvO2 is the indicator of the oxygen sup-ply/demand balance. The hypothesis deduced from these premises and tested by Rivers et al. was that an early intervention, aimed at …

Background Impaired microcirculation is a cornerstone of sepsis development and leads to reduced tissue oxygena-tion, influenced by fluid and catecholamine administration during treatment. …
