Significance for monitoring oxygen delivery and metabolism in circulatory failure situations / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Failure to deliver sufficient oxygen to the tissues and failure to utilize oxygen in the tissues are essential pathophysiological changes in circulatory failure situations.This is common in all kinds of shocks.Monitoring oxygen delivery and metabolism not only changes the ways to assess the shock but also affects the managements of shocks deeply.Monitoring and controlling global and tissue oxygen delivery and metabolism are goals for circulatory failure assessment and management in the future.
