The impact of urine flow on urine oxygen partial pressure monitoring during cardiac surgery

J Clin Monit ComputPublished Prospective observational study

Authors' conclusion

PuO2 measurements were acquired with enough temporal resolution to demonstrate real-time PuO2 monitoring during CPB and the post-CPB period.

Study context

Population
Cardiac surgery patients monitored with a novel urinary oxygen monitoring system
Participants
86 patients
Exposure
pre-CPB vs cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) vs post-CPB
Outcome
Ability to make real-time intraoperative PuO2 measurements (valid data, given adequate urine flow ≥0.5 ml/kg/hr)

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Patients included with valid PuO2 data (≤70% data discarded)

CPB vs pre-CPB: P < 0.001 · post-CPB vs pre-CPB: P < 0.001

Observational data: associations, not effects.
