Influence of systemic hemodynamics on microcirculation during sepsis.

During sepsis, improvement of hemodynamic may not be related to improvement of microcirculation. The aim of this study was to investigate influence of systemic circulation on microcirculation in septic ICU patients. DAP was the only independent determinant of resStO2 in septic patients. Fluid challenges may improve microcirculation. CVP did not influence resStO2.
