abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:Because gastric mucosal PCO2 must be referenced to arterial values via a gastric-to-arterial PCO2 gap (Pg-aCO2), the gastric-to-end-tidal PCO2 difference (Pg-ETCO2) may be proposed as a surrogate method to monitor Pg-aCO2. However, the influence of arterial-to-end-tidal PCO2 (Pa-ETCO2) on its v...
