Phenomenal video. You break this concept down perfectly, so easy to follow. You are great; have seen many of your lectures. They are applicable to so many different viewers -- resident, attending, respiratory, nurses, med student, etc. Please continue to make more!

Amazing class . Great video. Thanks .

good way to explain in you made it simpler than the average, that's what medicine needs people that know how to explain stuff to learn this material faster.

Very useful! Thanks a million and stay safe!

Phenomenal video Doc! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

I would do one thing… talk about what the values or reading will look like in relation to consumption and delivery…

Great new format, Eddy Joe! Keep it up!

Greattttt my broth! You are a top teacher ! Thanks for sharing

So simple and easy, nice work

Wow~~~ Thank you so much!!

Was a bit confused re difference in Scvo2 vs SVO2. Doesn't normal brain metabolism result in higher O2 extraction than lower extremities? Hence SVC o2 content is lower than IVC, and not the other way around like you suggested; AKA Scvo2 is generally lower than SVO2 physiologically. During shock however Scvo2 is higher than SVO2 due to combination of splanchnic vasoconstriction, decreased cerebral o2 extraction etc ??

I like how you explained it. thanks

THANKS A LOT ❤❤

Thanks!

Thank You Eddy great video!

Soo good! Thank you!

Thank you ! This was great, will use on rounds tomorrow lol.

Great explanation!

Thank you Doc , just subscribed will be looking forward to new content . Kenny RRT, Respiratory Therapist

09:30 there is strong correlation between acidotic state and low C.O/SVO2 - might be a good idea to give bicarb if base deficit is > 4 on ABG

Question: so where about do you insert the pulmonary catheter to get the Svo2? I'm trying to see images on Google, and I'm seeing you can insert at the subclavian or brachial artery? Maybe I'm not getting the right results. Can you please clarify? Also for the Scvo2 that goes in the jugular vein or the subclavian, correct?

Is a simple fingertip pulse oximeter measuring both arterial and venous blood? If so, could a high reading be bad if oxygen is not being utilized and just recirculating? Also, What about using thiamine and Methylene Blue to increase oxygen consumption by the mitochondria? What would you say is happening when after breathing 90% oxygen for a few minutes and a pulse oximeter reads 100‰ , this 100% can be hit for many minutes afterwards, when normally it would be much lower? Any ideas?

Thank you

Hey Eddy, thanks for the material! What is the software that you use for the lectures and your other videos? Looks extremely helpful

Great 👍👍👍👍👍👍

In sepsis, the ScvO2 would be above 70%?
