Objective:
To study the relationship between the values of SvcO2 and SrcO2 in lung resection with one lung ventilation (OLV) and changes in these variables and mean arterial pressure (MAP) and arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) during the perioperative period.
Material And Methods:
Prospective, observational study of 25 patients in whom pulmonary resection was performed with OLV. The values of MAP, SpO2, SvO2, and SrcO2 were recorded at 6 different times: 1)baseline; 2)double-lung ventilation before the OLV (VBP1); 3)during OLV; 4)after double-lung ventilation (VBP2); 5)30minutes after surgery, and 6)6hours after surgery.
Results:
The SrcO2 showed a significant increase from baseline to starting ventilation (65.72±9.05% vs 70.44±7.24%; P<.01). There were no significant changes in their values at the different intraoperative times. Post-operatively, as in the case of the SvcO2, a significant decrease (P<.001) of its value compared with the previous value was observed.
Conclusions:
SrcO2 showed a significant increase after induction of anaesthesia and initiation of mechanical ventilation compared to baseline, and a significant decrease at the end of surgery after extubation in the immediate postoperative period. Being a tissue monitoring, non-invasive technique and with continuous values it can alert the clinician of changes in the ratio of oxygen consumption (VO2) to oxygen delivery (DO2) at times of greatest risk, such as OLV, extubation, and the early postoperative period.

Breathing, a seemingly passive process, is regulated by the respiratory center in the brainstem. This center coordinates the involuntary control of respirations, which means it occurs without conscious effort, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted pattern.
Regulation of Ventilation
The body maintains ventilation by monitoring levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), oxygen (O2), and hydrogen ion concentration (pH) in the arterial blood. Among these factors, the level of CO2 plays a crucial...
