Does a novel prediction algorithm based on exhaust gas monitoring accurately estimate arterial pO2 during cardiopulmonary bypass in adult patients?
A novel algorithm based on exhaust gas monitoring can estimate arterial pO2 during cardiopulmonary bypass with a mean error of 8.7%, offering a potential continuous monitoring alternative.

May support continuous pO2 monitoring during bypass; leaves open whether 8.7% error meets clinical safety thresholds.
Arterial blood oxygen tension (P(a)O(2)) is a vital variable that has to be monitored during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The aim of this study was to develop an alternative method for continuously P(a)O(2) monitoring during CPB, based on measurements of exhaust-gas from an oxygenator. A total of 15 adult patients undergoing CPB (n = 81 samples) were included in a study in order to develop an appropriate algorithm for P(a)O(2) estimation based on exhaust gas monitoring of the oxygen tension (P(ex)O(2)). The acquired data was used as a basis for developing a statistical prediction algorithm designed for continuously estimating the P(a)O(2)-level based on exhaust gas data in combination with data from the surrounding medical equipment. A new instrument was developed in order to implement this P(a)O(2) prediction algorithm and was tested on five patients (n = 39 samples). When the first sample was used for calibrating the instrument, the mean (SD) error was 8.7% (7.3%) with a 95% CI of 6.1-11.3%. Our results indicate that a pO(2)-exhaust monitoring device with adequate precision is obtainable, but further studies are required.

Høgetveit et al. (2009) studied Cardiopulmonary bypass (n=20). Exhaust-gas based arterial pO2 monitoring algorithm was evaluated on Mean error of P(a)O(2) estimation (95% CI 6.1-11.3). An exhaust-gas based monitoring device for indirectly estimating arterial pO2 during cardiopulmonary bypass demonstrated a mean error of 8.7% when calibrated with a first sample.
