    Author: Vinsant MO, Lemberg L.
    Journal: Heart Lung; 1977; 6(4):697-702. PubMed ID: 586223.
    Abstract:
    This vignette discusses the use of blood gas determination in the diagnosis and management of cardiogenic shock complicating an acute MI. Both arterial and venous samplings are used to assess cardiac output. Results of therapy can be followed by noting directional changes in cardiac output, i.e., changes in A-VDO2.
