    AbstractWhen oxygen delivery (DO2) critically decreases, oxygen consumption (VO2) becomes supply dependent. We examined whether end-tidal PCO2 (PetCO2) would identify supply dependency during shock. Five dogs (Group I) underwent progressive hemorrhage to decrease DO2 until they could no longer maintain a stable blood pressure. Five additional animals (Group II) were bled until VO2 decreased to 70% of baseline, followed by resuscitation. The PetCO2 versus time inflection point was compared with the DO2 at onset of supply dependency (DO2crit). DO2crit for Groups I and II were 6.9 +/- .4 and 8.1 +/- 1.3, respectively (p = NS), and not statistically different from the DO2 values at which PetCO2 decreased (6.6 +/- .7 and 6.3 +/- .7 mL/kg per min, respectively). AT constant minute volume, PetCO2 effectively indicated the onset of supply dependency and rapidly increased during resuscitation, paralleling the changes in VO2 in this model of hemorrhagic shock.
