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 …

Nov 29, 2010 · Introduction Controversy remains regarding the relationship between central venous saturation (ScvO2) and mixed venous saturation (SvO2) and their use and interchangeability in …

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 …

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 …

Mar 19, 2013 · Mixed venous oxygen saturation (SVO 2) represents a well-recognized parameter of oxygen delivery (DO 2)-consumption (VO 2) mismatch and its use has been advocated in critically ill …

Mar 23, 2010 · Introduction Discrepancies of 5-24% between superior vena cava oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) have been reported in patients with severe …

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