Does Gastric Juice pH Influence Tonometric Pco 2 Measured by Automated Air Tonometry?

Abstract: To determine the influence of changes in gastric juice pH due to intravenous administration of pentagastrin and omeprazole on intramucosal regional PCO2 (Pr(CO2)), we investigated 17 healthy human volunteers. Gastric juice pH was obtained from a glass pH electrode for continuous gastric juice pH measurement and Pr(CO2))was measured by using automated air tonometry. After baseline (8:00 A.M.-9:00 A.M.) the subjects received 0.6 microg/kg/h pentagastrin intravenously for 1 h (9:00 A.M.-10:00 A.M., after stimulat… Show more

“…Concentrations of aqueous carbon dioxide and bicarbonate are directly related in the luminal fluid of the GI tract . In the stomach of healthy humans, the percent CO 2 typically ranges between 4% and 10% CO 2 (30–76 mmHg) and similar values are observed in the proximal jejunum . McGeese and Hastings measured an average of 13.2% (100 mmHg) CO 2 in the jejunum at an average pH of 6.5 .…”

“…Each patient was given the proton pump-inhibitor omeprazol (80 mg day -1 i.v.) to increase gastric juice pH to a value of greater than 4, which improves the accuracy of PiCO 2 measurement [16].…”

“…Gastric acid suppression can also alter gastric tonometric measurements, and recommendations regarding the need for acid suppression for accurate tonometric measurements vary. In 1 study, gastric PCO 2 increased in response to pentagastrin, which increases acid output, and decreased in response to omeprazole administration, which decreases acid output 9 . Because ill foals are commonly treated with acid‐suppressing agents, including omeprazole, the effect of these drugs on tonometric measurements is also critical before the application of this technique to hospitalized foals.…”
