Abstract

Objective: In bariatric surgery, arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and oxygen (PaO2) pressures are important but sometimes difficult to measure. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether transcutaneous carbon dioxide (tcPCO2) and oxygen (tcPO2) pressures can be used to monitor PaCO2 and PaO2, respectively, in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.
