Role of Pv-aCO2 gradient and Pv-aCO2/Ca-vO2 ratio during cardiac surgery: a retrospective observational study

Introduction: Arterial lactate, mixed venous O2 saturation, venous minus arterial CO2 partial pressure (Pv-aCO2) and the ratio between this gradient and the arterial minus venous oxygen content (Pv-aCO2/Ca-vO2) were proposed as markers of tissue hypoperfusion and oxygenation. The main goals were to...
