Induced hypercarbia may unfavorably shift myocardial oxygen balance in cardiac patients; Level 5 case report leaves open whether to avoid it during carotid endarterectomy.
Does induced hypercarbia affect cardiovascular hemodynamics and myocardial oxygen balance in patients with heart disease undergoing carotid endarterectomy?
Induced hypercarbia during carotid endarterectomy in patients with heart disease increases internal carotid stump pressure but creates an unfavorable myocardial oxygen supply-demand balance.
A 1978 study studied this question.
