Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Division and Department of Medicine, The George Washington University Medical Center Washington, DC, USA.
Introduction: We compared simultaneous measurements of blood lactate concentration ([Lac]) in the right atrium (RA) and in the pulmonary artery (PA). Our aim was to determine if the mixing of right atrial with coronary venous blood, having substantially lower [Lac], results in detectable decreases in [Lac] from the RA to the PA.
Methods: A prospective, sequential, observational study was conducted in a medical-surgical intensive care unit.
