Central venous oxygen saturation for the diagnosis of low cardiac output in septic shock patients

    50 Citations (Scopus)

    Abstract

    Simple diagnostic tests are needed to screen septic patients for low cardiac output because intervention is recommended in these patients. We assessed the diagnostic value of central venous oxygen saturation in the superior vena cava (ScvO(2)) for detecting low cardiac output in patients with septic shock.
