Is the PCO2 gap a surrogate for assessing microcirculation? #LIVES2020
Perennially, it’s a technique that I would like to have more experience with.

Venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide difference in the resuscitation of patients with severe sepsis and septic shock: A systematic review #LIVES2020

PCO2 gradient reflect perfusion, NOT tissue hypoxia #LIVES2020

Unlike Pt-aCO2, Pv-aCO2 reflects cardiac output, not tissue perfusion. Hence in conclusion #LIVES2020

Armed with coffee, Im at the case-based fundamental sessions. Discussing real cases and management strategies.

Would you do what the experts would do?

@Manu_Malbrain

The classic case vignette of a septic patient being resuscitated - the audience is split between 30mls/kg of fluids or start a vasopressor. #LIVES2020

i suspect @Manu_Malbrain @khaycock2 et al have a view on the 30mls/kg option.

I like the fact that you can send your questions in on the platfrom. It can be intimidating to be handed a mic in a large room - I do anyway #LIVES2020

The opening plenary at #LIVES2020 is on language and how it affects the way we think
Prof Boroditsky

So I can speak 3 languages - English, Mandarin and Malay. So where do I fit? #LIVES2020

This is true. It takes me about 48 hours for my brain to readjust/retune to Malay and Chinese when I visit my family #LIVES2020
