ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2), venous-arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressures difference (Pv-aCO2), venous-arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressures difference/arterial-venous oxygen difference ratio (Pv-aCO2/Ca-vO2) and lactate are important parameters employed during shock resuscitation. We designed this study to confirm the effects of time delay and body temperature on measurements of these four parameters. METHODS:Arterial and central venous blood samples were simultaneously drawn by plastic syringes via indwelling intra-arterial and central venous catheters from critically ill patients. Blood gas analyses were performed on both samples and repeated after 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60?min. Patients were divided into a control group and a high temperature group according to whether the body temperature was greater than 38?°C. RESULTS:A total of 30 critically ill patients were enrolled. There was a trend of increasing values for ScvO2, Pv-aCO2, Pv-aCO2/Ca-vO2 and lactate over time (P?
