Popis: Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) is easily observable in oncology patients with long-term central venous catheters (CVC), and has been studied as a prognostic factor in patients with sepsis. We sought to investigate the association between ScvO2 and early complications in cancer patients presenting to the ED. We prospectively enrolled adult cancer patients with pre-existing CVC who presented to the ED. ScvO2 was measured on their CVC. The outcome was admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) or mortality by day 7. ScvO2 was first studied as a continuous variable (%) with a ROC analysis and as a categorical variable (cut-off at 1 and a performance status > 2 (OR 4.76; 95% CI 1.81–12.52 and OR 6.23, 95% CI 2.40–16.17, respectively). This study does not support the use of ScvO2 to risk stratify cancer patients presenting to the ED.
