Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 09/09/09
Perner A et al. – Simple diagnostic tests are needed to screen septic patients for low cardiac output because intervention is recommended in these patients. The authors assessed the diagnostic value of central venous oxygen saturation in the superior vena cava (ScvO2) for detecting low cardiac output in patients with septic shock. This prospective, observational study found that a ScvO2 measurement of >=64% indicated CITD>2.5 l/min/m^2 in ICU patients with septic shock.
