| Popis: | Hemoglobin as the main trigger parameter for blood transfusion usually gives diminutive information about oxygen delivery and consumption. Although central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) is an alternative parameter, its changes are unable to detect regional hypoxia. Our aim was to evaluate the quotient of the central venous-toarterial carbon dioxide gradient (δPCO2) and the arteriovenous oxygen content difference (Ca-cvO2) as a valid transfusion trigger parameter in hemodynamically stable anemic patients to reduce the amount of potentially counterproductive erythrocyte transfusions [1]. |
