Read MoreAUTHORS: Karlsson, Jacob MD, PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: September 2020 BACKGROUND: Mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) is important when evaluating the balance between oxygen delivery and whole-body oxygen consumption. Monitoring SvO2 has so far required blood samples from a pulmonary artery catheter. By combining volumetric capnography, for measurement of effective pulmonary blood flow, with the […]
