The concentration of oxygen, lactate and glucose in the central veins, right heart, and pulmonary artery: a study in patients with pulmonary hypertension

INTRODUCTION: Decreases in oxygen saturation (SO(2)) and lactate concentration [Lac] from superior vena cava (SVC) to pulmonary artery have been reported. These gradients (ΔSO(2 )and Δ[Lac]) are probably created by diluting SVC blood with blood of lower SO(2 )and [Lac]. We tested the hypothesis that...
