Comparison between central venous and peripheral lactate regarding to their clinical concordance with arterial lactate
Lper/Lart concordance | Lcen/Lart concordance | |
---|---|---|
Yes | No | |
Yes | 66 | 1 |
No | 8 | 2 |
Lper = peripheral venous lactate; Lcen = central venous lactate; Lart = arterial lactate. Yes or no refers to concordance with clinical management based on arterial lactate. Results are expressed as number of paired samples. McNemar – P = 0.04.
