Mixed venous saturation (SvO2) is an indicator of the balance between oxygen supply and demand in the body's tissues Recently, our research team published a paper describing the possibility to continuously monitor SvO2 by the use of continuous dynamic capnography (Karlsson et al, A Continuous Noninvasive Method to Assess Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturation: A Proof-of-Concept Study in Pigs. Anesth Analg 2020) The primary objective of the current study is thus to investigate the agreement and trending ability for capnodynamically derived SvO2 against the gold standard CO-oximetry. The secondary objective is to investigate the agreement and trending ability for capnodynamically derived CO (COEPBF) against the modified CO2-Fick method.
