Abstrakt: Background: Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2 ) is an essential test readily performed both by medical and nursing personnel in a critical care setting. It gives information on the patient's oxygen supply, oxygen consumption, and cardiac output. It plays an important role in early goal-directed treatment.
Objectives: This study was planned to assess the effect of different fractions of inspired oxygen (FiO 2 ) levels on central venous oxygen saturation for consideration during the evaluation of central venous oxygen saturation.
Methods: This interventional cross-over study enrolled 60 critically ill, nonmechanically ventilated patients. Blood samples were repeatedly drawn from the distal end of the central venous catheter for blood gas analysis after administration of 30%, 40%, and 50% FIO 2 respectively.
Results: The results showed that increasing FiO 2 from 30% to 40% resulted in a mean increase in ScvO 2 of 6.2%. While increasing FiO 2 from 40% to 50% resulted in a mean increase in ScvO 2 of 3.2%. A significant increase in ScvO 2 with changes in FiO 2 level was recorded among patients in shock or patients with pneumonia (from 30% to 50%, p=0.002 in shock patients and from 30% to 40%, p=0.02 in patients with pneumonia).
Conclusion: Increasing FiO 2 resulted in a substantial rise in ScvO 2 . ScvO 2 changes in response to a therapeutic challenge should be interpreted at constant FiO 2 level, especially in patients with pneumonia.
