Abstract
We analyzed the relationship of increases in oxygen delivery to changes in oxygen consumption in ten patients with hyperdynamic septic shock. Increases in oxygen delivery from 413 +/- 14 (SEM) to 535 +/- 19 ml/min X m2 (p less than .01) were associated with increases in oxygen consumption from 136 +/- 10 to 161 +/- 5 ml/min X m2 (p less than .05). Arterial lactate decreased from 4.6 +/- 1.6 to 2.1 +/- 0.3 mmol/L (p less than .05). These observations suggest that oxygen utilization is perfusion-limited in hyperdynamic septic shock.Entities:
