The incidence of low venous oxygen saturation on admission to the intensive care unit: a multi-center observational study in The Netherlands

BACKGROUND: Low mixed or central venous saturation (S(c)vO(2)) can reveal global tissue hypoxia and therefore can predict poor prognosis in critically ill patients. Early goal directed therapy (EGDT), aiming at an ScvO(2 )≥ 70%, has been shown to be a valuable strategy in patients with sepsis or sep...
