%X The evaluation and correction of macrocriculatory and microcirculatory flow play an important role in the resuscitation of circulatory shock (1). The venous-to-arterial carbon dioxide difference [P(v-a)CO2] has gained great attentions in the resuscitation of sepsis. The P(v-a)CO2 is determined by cardiac output and metabolic status, and it has been taken as an indicator of the adequacy of the venous blood £żow to remove the CO2 produced by the peripheral tissues (2,3)
