Continuous measurement of oxygen consumption during cardiopulmonary bypass: description of the method and in vivo observations.
BACKGROUND: Systemic oxygen consumption is not routinely measured during cardiopulmonary bypass, despite its potential benefits. We aimed to develop a noninvasive method to continuously measure oxygen consumption using respiratory mass spectrometry during hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass in pigs....
