Brief Summary

Aim: To study the correlation between venous to arterial carbon dioxide difference (Pv-aCO2), PcvCO2-PaCO2/CaO2-CcvO2 ratio and serum lactate during resuscitation in patients with septic shock.

Objectives:

Primary Objective- To evaluate correlation between Pv-aCO2, PcvCO2–PaCO2/CaO2–CcvO2 ratio and the arterial lactate at various time points till 24 hours, in management of patients with septic shock.

Secondary Objectives-

1. To ascertain whether the Pv-aCO2, PcvCO2–PaCO2/CaO2–CcvO2 ratio and the arterial lactate levels in the first 24 hours are able to predict outcome of the patient in terms of: -a.Organ dysfunction at 48 hours, as assessed by Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score (range, 0 [best] to 24 [worst]). b. Vasopressor free days. c. Length of stay in ICU. d. Mortality within 28 days.

2. To determine whether the Pv-aCO2, PcvCO2–PaCO2/ CaO2–CcvO2 ratio and arterial lactate are useful in discriminating survivors from non-survivors.
