Introduction: Evidence suggests the high capability of non-invasive assessment of the End-tidal carbondioxide (ETCO2) in predicting changes in arterial carbon dioxide pressure (PCO2) following major surgeries in children. We aimed to compare EtCO2 values measured by capnography with mainstream device and EtCO2 values assessed by arterial blood gas analysis before and after cardiopulmonary bypass pumping in cyanotic children. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 32 children aged less than 12 years with ASA II suffering cyanotic heart diseases and undergoing elective cardiopulmonary bypass pumping. Arterial blood sample was prepared through arterial line before and after pumping and arterial blood gas (ABG)was analyzed. Simultaneously, the value of EtCO2 was measured by capnography with mainstream device. Results: A significant direct relationship was found between the changes in ETCO2 and arterialPCO2 (r = 0.529, P = 0.029) postoperatively. According to significant linear association between postoperative change in ETCO2 and arterial PCO2, we revealed a new linear formula between the two indices: ΔPCO2 = 0.89× ETCO2-0.54. The association between arterial PCO2 and ETCO2 remained significant adjusted for gender, age, and body weight. Conclusion: the value of ETCO2 can reliability estimate postoperative changes in arterial PCO2 in cyanotic children undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass pumping.

AbstractThe purpose of the study was to evaluate the behavior of the venous-to-arterial CO2 tension difference (ΔPCO2) over the arterial-to-venous oxygen content difference (ΔO2) ratio (ΔPCO2/ΔO2) and the difference between venous-to-arterial CO2 content calculated with the Douglas’ equation (ΔCCO2D) over ΔO2 ratio (ΔCCO2D/ΔO2) and their abilities to reflect the occurrence of anaerobic metabolism in two experimental models of tissue hypoxia: ischemic hypoxia (IH) and hypoxic hypoxia (HH). We also aimed to assess the influence of metabolic acidosis and Haldane effects on the PCO2/CO2 content relationship. In a vascularly isolated, innervated dog hindlimb perfused with a pump-membrane oxygenator system, the oxygen delivery (DO2) was lowered in a stepwise manner to decrease it beyond critical DO2 (DO2crit) by lowering either arterial PO2 (HH-model) or flow (IH-model). Twelve anesthetized and mechanically ventilated dogs were studied, 6 in each model. Limb DO2, oxygen consumption ($${\dot{\text{V}}\text{O}}_{2}$$ V ˙ O 2 ), ΔPCO2/ΔO2, and ΔCCO2D/ΔO2 were obtained every 15 min. Beyond DO2crit, $${\dot{\text{V}}\text{O}}_{2}$$ V ˙ O 2 decreased, indicating dysoxia. ΔPCO2/ΔO2, and ΔCCO2D/ΔO2 increased significantly only after reaching DO2crit in both models. At DO2crit, ΔPCO2/ΔO2 was significantly higher in the HH-model than in the IH-model (1.82 ± 0.09 vs. 1.39 ± 0.06, p = 0.002). At DO2crit, ΔCCO2D/ΔO2 was not significantly different between the two groups (0.87 ± 0.05 for IH vs. 1.01 ± 0.06 for HH, p = 0.09). Below DO2crit, we observed a discrepancy between the behavior of the two indices. In both models, ΔPCO2/ΔO2 continued to increase significantly (higher in the HH-model), whereas ΔCCO2D/ΔO2 tended to decrease to become not significantly different from its baseline in the IH-model. Metabolic acidosis significantly influenced the PCO2/CO2 content relationship, but not the Haldane effect. ΔPCO2/ΔO2 was able to depict the occurrence of anaerobic metabolism in both tissue hypoxia models. However, at very low DO2 values, ΔPCO2/ΔO2 did not only reflect the ongoing anaerobic metabolism; it was confounded by the effects of metabolic acidosis on the CO2–hemoglobin dissociation curve, and then it should be interpreted with caution.

Background: Cardiac arrest is a severe condition with high mortality rates, especially in the case of prolonged low-flow durations resulting in severe ischaemia and reperfusion injury. Changes in partial carbon dioxide concentration (pCO2) may aggravate this injury. Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) shortens the low-flow duration and enables close regulation of pCO2. We examined whether pCO2 is associated with recovery of consciousness. Methods: We retrospectively analysed ECPR patients ≥ 16 years old treated between 2010 and 2019. We evaluated initial arterial pCO2 and the course of pCO2 ≤ 6 h after initiation of ECPR. The primary outcome was the rate of recovery of consciousness, defined as Glasgow coma scale motor score of six. Results: Out of 99 ECPR patients, 84 patients were eligible for this study. The mean age was 47 years, 63% were male, 93% had a witnessed arrest, 45% had an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and 38% had a recovery of consciousness. Neither initial pCO2 (Odds Ratio (OR) 0.93, 95% confidence interval 95% (CI) 0.78–1.08) nor maximum decrease of pCO2 (OR 1.03, 95% CI 0.95–1.13) was associated with the recovery of consciousness. Conclusion: Initial arterial pCO2 and the course of pCO2 in the first six hours after initiation of ECPR were not associated with the recovery of consciousness.

Abstract Background: Veno arterial membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is increasingly used for cardiogenic failure. However, hemodynamic targets for adequate resuscitation remain a challenge. The PCO 2 gap and the ratio between PCO 2 gap and the arteriovenous difference in oxygen (PCO 2 gap/Da–vO 2 ) are marker of peripheral hypoperfusion. We hypothesized that the PCO 2 gap and the PCO 2 gap/Da–vO 2 ratio might be useful parameters in VA ECMO patients. Methods: We conducted an observational prospective study between September 2015 and February 2017. All consecutive patients >18 years of age who had been treated with peripheral VA ECMO for cardiac failure were included. We compared 2 groups of patients: patients who died of any cause under VA ECMO or in the 72h following VA ECMO weaning (early death group) - and patients who survived VA ECMO weaning more than 72h (surviving group). Blood samples were drawn from arterial and venous VA ECMO cannulas at H0 and H6. The ability of PCO 2 gap and PCO 2 gap/Da–vO 2 to discriminate between early mortality and surviving was studied using ROC curves analysis. Results: We included 20 patients in surviving group and 29 in early death group. The PCO 2 gap was higher in the early death group at H6 (7.4 [5.7–10.1] vs. 5.9 [3.8–9.2], p < 0.01). AUC for PCO 2 gap at H6 was 0.76 (0.61–0.92), with a cut-off of 6.2 mmHg. The PCO 2 gap/Da–vO 2 was higher in the early death group at H0 (2.1 [1.5–2.6] vs. 1.2 [0.9–2.4], p < 0.01) and at H6 (2.1 [1.3–2.6] vs. 1.0 [0.8–1.7], p < 0.01). AUC for PCO 2 gap/Da–vO 2 at H0 and H6 were 0.79 and 0.73 respectively; the cut-off value was 1.4. Conclusions: The PCO 2 gap and the PCO 2 gap/Da–vO2 ratio are associated with early death in patients who undergo VA ECMO.
