A urinary pCO2 measurement system with a miniature planar CO2 probe has been
developed for monitoring pCO2 levels in the urine (U‐pCO2) of catheterized septic shock …

Severe sepsis and septic shock are life-threatening conditions with mortality rates exceeding
31%(Levy et al., 2012)[1]. Septicemia was the most expensive US hospital condition in 2011 …

A liquid-membrane pH-PCO2 microelectrode is described for the simultaneous
measurement of pH and PCO2 in tissues and body fluids. The microelectrode is simple and …

The performance characteristics of two transcutaneous combined PO 2 (tcPO 2) and PCO 2
(tcPCO 2) sensors were compared with single tcPO 2 and tcPCO 2 electrodes in critically ill …

Conclusions These findings recorded in a small number of patients must be interpreted with
caution, particularly in view of the fact that, in a few cases, two types of traces were observed …

Transcutaneous carbon dioxide and oxygen tensions (tc-pCO2 and tc-pO2) were measured
in seven healthy adult volunteers during hyperventilation in atmospheric air and during CO2 …

Background: Under ischaemic (anaerobic) conditions there will be an accumulation of CO2
in the tissue secondary to a build up of protons that is buffered by HCO3‐. We reasoned that …

Two electrodes placed at the tip of catheters for in vivo determinations of P _ CO _ 2 and P _
O _ 2 respectively, were tested in dogs. Results were satisfactory when compared to a highly …

In vitro monitoring is inherently invasive with discrete measurements on blood samples and
the results are often delayed an hour or more when the analyses are performed in the …

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine if monitoring urinary bladder Pco2, Po2,
and calculated intramucosal pH would be a reliable index of tissue perfusion. Materials and …
