Blood Pressure Measurement


Driving pressure for oxygen delivery Blood pressure = cardiac output x systemic vascular resistance
What options would you consider for monitoring blood pressure in this patient?

Automated noninvasive device Arterial cannulation

Case Study
Automated blood pressure device and pulse oximeter applied SpO2 91% (room air), HR 140/min, BP 100/60 mm Hg Hemoglobin 13.5 g/dL Is oxygen delivery sufficient in this patient to maintain an adequate oxygen balance?

Acid-Base Analysis
Overall acid-base condition (acidemia or alkalemia) Metabolic or respiratory process Acute or chronic process if respiratory disturbance present Appropriate respiratory compensation if metabolic process present Anion gap Delta gap if anion gap acidosis present

Case Study
pH 7.34, PaCO2 38 mm Hg (5.3 kPa), PaO2 68 mm Hg (9.1 kPa) Na 132 mmol/L, K 4.0 mmol/L, Cl 103 mmol/L, HCO3 17 mmol/L

Acidemia or alkalemia Acidemia Respiratory or metabolic

1.5 x 17 + 8 = 33 PaCO2 = 1.5[HCO3] + 8 2 PaCO2 = 1.2 x [HCO3]

Anion gap
AG = [Na] ([Cl] + [HCO3]) 132 120 = 12 Expected AG decreases by 2.5-3 mmol/L for every 1 g/dL decrease in albumin Expected AG=12 (6-7) = 5-6

Delta gap

Questions

23

Key Points
Oxygen delivery is dependent on cardiac output and arterial oxygen content Hemoglobin is the major contributor of oxygen for tissue demands Normal filling pressures may not indicate adequate preload ScvO2 and lactate are useful measures of global oxygen balance Low ScvO2 values suggest oxygen imbalance

24

Key Points
Pulse oximetry values do not reflect adequacy of oxygen delivery Arterial cannulation is preferable to automated devices for blood pressure monitoring in unstable patients Assessment of acid-base status may suggest specific diagnoses and/or interventions
