Example sentences for: intramucosal
How can you use “intramucosal” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The use of tissue P CO 2 and arterial P CO 2 (Pa CO 2 ) difference is a better marker of ischemia than is either gastric intra-mucosal pH or intramucosal P CO 2 [ 34] because the gap is not influenced by alveolar ventilation [ 35].
Other limiting factors in gastric tonometry are related to feeding [ 22, 23] and the large lumen of the stomach, requiring longer time for intralu-minal contents to equilibrate with intramucosal P CO 2 . Moreover, in the presence of low gastric pH, secretion of bicarbonate leads to intraluminal production of carbon dioxide [ 39].
Experimental evaluation of a fiberoptic P CO 2 sensor, similar to that used in the present study, has shown a high degree of precision in detecting short-term changes in intramucosal P CO 2 [ 35].
Porter and Ivatury [ 46] demonstrated that the use of base deficit, lactate, and/or gastric intramucosal pH are appropriate end-points of resuscitation for trauma patients.
The above factors may prevent rapid detection of changes in intramucosal P CO 2 . Therefore, several other sites have been used for tonometry.
