Correlation of the changing trends of ScvO2, serum lactate, standard base excess and anion gap in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock managed by Early Goal Directed Therapy (EGDT): A prospective observational study
Abstract:Background:
To observe the correlation of central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO
2
), serum lactate, standard base excess (SBE), and anion gap (AG) in septic and septic shock patients resuscitated with early goal-directed therapy (EGDT).
Materials and Methods:
A review was made of 130 severe septic shock patients (15–65 years) according to the consensus conference criteria admitted in intensive care unit. Blood samples were obtained from arter… Show more
