Abstrakt: Background and Aims: Venous to arterial difference of carbon dioxide (Pv-aCO 2 ) tracks tissue blood flow. We aimed to evaluate if Pv-aCO 2 measured from a superior central vein sample is a prognostic index (ICU length of stay, SOFA score, 28th mortality rate) just after early goal-directed therapy (EGDT)comparing its ICU admission values between patients with normal and abnormal (>6 mm Hg) Pv-aCO 2 . As secondary objectives, we evaluated the relationship of Pv-aCO 2 with other variables of perfusion during the 24 hours that followed EGDT.
Materials and Methods: Prospective observational study conducted in an academic ICU adult septic shock patients after a 6-hour complete EGTD. Hemodynamic measurements, arterial/central venous blood gases, and arterial lactate were obtained on ICU admission and after 6, 18 and 24 hours.
Results: Sixty patients were included. Admission Pv-aCO 2 values showed no prognostic value. Admission Pv-aCO 2 (ROC curve 0.527 [CI 95% 0.394 to 0.658]) values showed low specificity and sensitivity as predictors of mortality. There was a difference observed in the mean Pv-aCO 2 between nonsurvivors (NS) and survivors (S) after 6 hours. Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2 ) and Pv-aCO 2 showed significant correlation (R2 = -0.41, P < 0.0001). Patients with normal ScvO 2 (>70%) and abnormal Pv-aCO 2 (>6 mm Hg) showed higher SOFA scores. Normal Pv-aCO 2 group cleared their lactate levels in comparison to the abnormal Pv-aCO 2 group.
Conclusion: In septic shock, admission Pv-aCO 2 after EGDT is not related to worse outcomes. An abnormal Pv-aCO 2 along with a normal ScvO 2 is related to organ dysfunction.
