Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of P (cv-a) CO
2/C(a-cv)O
2ratio in fluid resuscitation in patients with septic shock.
Methods According to the monitoring results of P(cv-a)CO
2/C(A-CV)O
2 ratio after resuscitation treatment for 6 h, 43 patients with septic shock were divided into two groups. Treatment group(
n=31): P(cv-a)CO
2/C(A-CV)O
2 ratio<1.8, central venous oxygen saturation(ScvO
2)≥70%. Control group(
n=12): P(cv-a)CO
2/C(A-CV)O
2 ratio≥1.8, ScvO
2≥70%. The following data were collected: heart rate(HR), mean arterial pressure(MAP), cardiac index(CI), central venous pressure(CVP) at the beginning of resuscitation(T
0), 6 h(T
6)and 24 h(T
24)after resuscitation, and the blood gas analysis results of arterial blood and central venous blood were also recorded. Lactate acid, ScvO
2and PaCO
2were recorded, and P(cv-a)CO
2 was calculated. Arterial oxygen content, central venous blood oxygen content, oxygen delivery(DO
2) and oxygen consumption(VO
2) were also calculated. The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ) scores, length of ICU stay and total hospital stay, in-hospital mortality and 28-d mortality were recorded.
Results At T
24, HR and lactate acid level decreased in the treatment group, and DO
2and VO
2increased more significantly than the control group(
P<0.05). At T
6 and T
24, CI increased more significantly in the treatment group than that in the control group(
P<0.05). After treatment, the APACHE II scores decreased in both groups, and the decrease in the treatment group was more obvious at T
24, and the difference was statistically significant compared with the control group(
P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the length of ICU stay and total hospital stay of the treatment group were shortened(
P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in hospital mortality and 28-d mortality(
P>0.05).
Conclusions P(cv-a)CO
2/C(a-cv)O
2 can reflect tissue microcirculation perfusion and tissue cell oxygen uptake in patients with septic shock. The tissue oxygen supply in patients with P(cv-a)CO
2/C(a-cv)O
2≥1.8 is better than that in patients with P(cv-a)CO
2/C(a-cv)O
2 <1.8, with significantly shortened length of ICU stay and total hospital stay, but the mortality between the two groups is not statistically significant.
