New Noninvasive Method for the Assessment of Central Venous Oxygen Saturations in Critically Ill Patients

J Cardiothorac Vasc AnesthPublished Method comparison study

Authors' conclusion

Central venous oxygen saturation can be estimated reasonably by the continuous noninvasive measurement of SjvO2 using near-infrared spectroscopy.
