Example sentences for: t-a

How can you use “t-a” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Although the increase in PEEP had no impact on the group as a whole, changes in pH i and P (t-a) CO 2 during PEEP titration differed between individual patients (Table 3).

  • ALI = acute lung injury; ARDS = acute respiratory distress syndrome; DO 2 = oxygen delivery; MAP = mean arterial pressure; Pao 2 = partial arterial oxygen tension; P (t-a) CO 2 = gap between partial tissue and arterial carbon dioxide tension; PEEP = positive end-expiratory pressure; pH i = gastric mucosal pH.

  • partial arterial and tissue carbon dioxide tension) are similarly influenced by changes in alveolar ventilation, unless they are associated with alterations in cardiac output [ 17 ] . In the present study, changes in P (t-a) CO 2 were not statistically significant and correlated with changes in pH i . Consequently, we used pHi values in our discussion because we believe that pH i reliably reflects the accurate tissue pH in patients.

  • Because of concerns about the reliability of pH i for assessing mucosal perfusion, we also calculated the P (t-a) CO 2 because it has been proposed to be a better parameter than pH i [ 16 ] . The pH i level can sometimes be misleading, particularly in situations in which gastric tissue and arterial bicarbonate levels are not equal.

  • However, there were no statistically significant differences in P (t-a) CO 2 values between PEEP baseline , PEEP opt and PEEP max ( P = 0.353; Table 2).
