Evaluation of Hemodynamics and Amount of Blood Flowing Through the Kidneys by Measuring Some Physiological Substances in Blood and Urines

November 19, 2014 updated by: Dr. Paolo Feltracco, Azienda Ospedaliera di Padova

Hemodynamic Indexes and Renal Perfusion: Indirect Evaluation of Blood Volume Using the Association Between ScvO2 and Urinary Electrolytes in Patients Undergoing Major Surgery.

The purpose of this study is to verify any existing relationship between mixed oxygen saturation (from central venous catheter) and urinary sodium, potassium, chloride in determining the volemic state and renal perfusion of patients undergoing major surgical interventions.
