ΔPCO2 and ΔPCO2/C(a−cv)O2 Are Not Predictive of Organ Dysfunction After Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Background: Cardiac surgery is associated with a substantial risk of major adverse events. Although carbon dioxide (CO2)-derived variables such as venous-to-arterial CO2 difference (ΔPCO2), and PCO2 gap to arterial–venous O2 content difference ratio (ΔPCO2/C(a−cv)O2) have been successfully used to p...
