Can the values of the venous-to-arterial PCO2 difference (pCO2 gap) be negative?
In this manuscript, we discussed if it is physiologically sound that the difference between venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure...

Can perioperative pCO2 gaps predict complications in patients undergoing major elective abdominal surgery randomized to goal-directed therapy or standard care? A secondary analysis
The difference between venous and arterial carbon dioxide pressure (pCO 2 gap), has been used as a diagnostic and prognostic tool. We aimed to assess...
