Correlação entre gasometria atrial direita e índice cardíaco no pós-operatório de cirurgia cardíaca

A survey of recently published cardiovascular, hematological and pneumological original articles in the Brazilian scientific press

“…In the presence of coronary artery disease, patients with comorbidities present a higher degree of Quality of Life impairment. Duarte et al30 determined the reliability of central atrial venous blood gasometry data as estimates of cardiac index in patients who underwent cardiac surgery and found that SvO 2 and the C(a-v)O 2 correlated with low cardiac output. Silva et al31 proposed and developed a risk index to predict Atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery.…”

Correlação entre a SvO₂ e SjO₂ durante a cirurgia cardíaca com circulação extracorpórea em crianças

“…The hemoglobin saturation of central venous blood (SvO 2 ), near the right atrium, is commonly used as an indicator of the adequacy of cardiac output and oxygenation throughout the body [4,5], however, it does not reflect the oxygenation of specific organs, particularly the brain [6]. The desaturation (SjO 2 <50%) of hemoglobin in the jugular vein, commonly observed during the rewarming period, is not reflected in SvO 2 , and also it would not be detected without the monitoring of specific SjO 2 [1][2][3].…”
