Multicenter Study of Central Venous Oxygen Saturation as a Predictor of Mortality in Patients With Sepsis
Annals of Emergency Medicine, 10/27/09
Pope JY et al. – The maximum ScvO2 value achieved in the ED was associated with increased mortality. In multivariate analysis for initial ScvO2, the hyperoxia group was associated with increased mortality, but not the hypoxia group. This study suggests that future research aimed at targeting methods to normalize high ScvO2 values by therapies that improve microcirculatory flow or mitochondrial dysfunction may be warranted.
