Since CO is not routinely monitored in daily practice, some authors have suggested that certain metabolic vari-ables, such as central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2), could serve as indirect …

Nov 6, 2014 · Introduction In septic shock patients, the prevalence of low (<70%) central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and its relationship to outcome are …

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 …

Introduction: Current guidelines recommend maintaining central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) higher than 70% in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. As high levels of ScvO2 may reflect …

In a recent article, Balzer et al. [1] reported an unex-pected relationship between an initial central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) >80 % on ICU admission and increased morbidity and mortality in cardiac …

Background Low mixed or central venous saturation (S(c)vO2) can reveal global tissue hypoxia and therefore can predict poor prognosis in critically ill patients. Early goal directed therapy (EGDT), …

The use of central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) measurement has been proposed to guide fluid therapy [4]. The rationale behind assessing fluid responsiveness by ScvO2 is to identify patients on …

Aug 3, 2009 · Abstract A recent multicentre observational study examined the effect of emergency intubation on central venous oxygen saturation (SCVo2) in critically ill patients. The main finding was …

May 27, 2005 · A recent trial utilizing central venous oxygen saturation (SCVO2) as a resuscitation marker in patients with sepsis has resulted in its inclusion in the Surviving Sepsis Campaign …

Aug 3, 2009 · A recent multicentre observational study examined the effect of emergency intubation on central venous oxygen saturation (SCVo2) in critically ill patients. The main finding was that SCVo2 …
