Abstract Background Prior clinical research demonstrated that rapid reduction in arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) levels during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is associated with acute brain injury (ABI), which may be..
Lee masAbstract Background Venous blood gas sampling has replaced arterial sampling in many critically ill patients, though interpretation of venous pCO2 still remains a challenge. Lemoël et al., Farkas and Zeserson et..
Lee masAbstract Our objective was to assess the relationship between the pre-/post-oxygenator gradient of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (∆EC PCO2; dissolved form) and CO2 elimination under extracorporeal respiratory support. All patients..
