© Mesquida et al. Introduction: Since normal or high central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO<inf>2</inf>) values cannot discriminate if tissue perfusion is adequate, integrating other markers of tissue hypoxia, such as central venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide difference (P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf> gap) has been proposed. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the ability of the P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf> gap and the P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/arterial-venous oxygen content difference ratio (P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf>) to predict lactate evolution in septic shock. Methods: Observational study. Septic shock patients within the first 24 hours of ICU admission. After restoration of mean arterial pressure, and central venous oxygen saturation, the P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf> gap and the P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio were calculated. Consecutive arterial and central venous blood samples were obtained for each patient within 24 hours. Lactate improvement was defined as the decrease ≥ 10% of the previous lactate value. Results: Thirty-five septic shock patients were studied. At inclusion, the P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf> gap was 5.6 ± 2.1 mmHg, and the P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio was 1.6 ± 0.7 mmHg dL/mL O<inf>2</inf>. Those patients whose lactate values did not decrease had higher P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio values at inclusion (1.8 ± 0.8vs. 1.4 ± 0.5, p 0.02). During the follow-up, 97 paired blood samples were obtained. No-improvement in lactate values was associated to higher P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio values in the previous control. The ROC analysis showed an AUC 0.82 (p < 0.001), and a P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio cut-off value of 1.4 mmHg dL/mL O<inf>2</inf> showed sensitivity 0.80 and specificity 0.75 for lactate improvement prediction. The odds ratio of an adequate lactate clearance was 0.10 (p < 0.001) in those patients with an elevated P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio (≥1.4). Conclusion: In a population of septic shock patients with normalized MAP and S<inf>cv</inf>O<inf>2</inf>, the presence of elevated P<inf>cva</inf>CO<inf>2</inf>/C<inf>av</inf>O<inf>2</inf> ratio significantly reduced the odds of adequate lactate clearance during the following hours.
