PmO2, PmCO2, and pHm can be monitored simultaneously for several hours with fiber-optic sensors in a single, small probe. PmO2 may provide information comparable to O2 delivery. PmCO2 may reflect adequacy of perfusion. pHm may indicate success of resuscitation. This technology may offer new insight into the extent of injury and refinement of shock resuscitation and monitoring.
