Gut ischemia is often assessed by computing an imaginary tissue interstitial pH from arterial plasma HCO3- and PCO2 in a saline-filled balloon tonometer after equilibration with tissue PCO2 (Pti(CO2)). Pti(CO2) may alternatively be assumed equal to venous PCO2 (Pv(CO2)) in that region of gut. The idea is that as blood flow decreases, gut Pti(CO2) and Pv(CO2) will increase to the maximum aerobic value, i.e., maximum respiratory Pv(CO2) (Pv(CO2rmax)). Above a "critical" anaerobic threshold, lactate (La-) generation, by titration of tissue HCO3-, should raise Pti(CO2) above Pv(CO2rmax). During progressive selective whole intestinal flow reduction in six pentobarbital-anesthetized pigs, we used PCO2 electrodes to test the hypotheses that critical Pti(CO2) is achieved earlier in mucosa than in serosa and that Pv(CO2rmax), computed using an in vitro model, predicts critical Pti(CO2). We defined critical Pti(CO2) as the inflection of Pti(CO2)-Pv(CO2) vs. O-2 delivery (QO(2)) plots. Critical QO(2) for O-2 uptake was 12.55 +/- 2 ml . kg(-1). min(-1). Critical Pti(CO2) for mucosa and serosa was achieved at similar whole intestine QO(2) (13.90 +/- 5 and 13.36 +/- 5 ml . kg(-1). min(-1), P = NS). Critical Pti(CO2) (129 +/- 24 and 96 +/- 21 Torr) exceeded Pv(CO2rmax) (62 +/- 3 Torr). During ischemia, La- excretion into portal venous blood was matched by K+ excretion, causing Pv(CO2) to increase only slightly, despite Pti(CO2) rising to 380 +/- 46 (mucosa) and 280 +/- 38 (serosa) Torr. These results suggest that mucosa and serosa become dysoxic simultaneously, that ischemic dysoxic gut is essentially unperfused, and that in vitro predicted Pv(CO2rmax) underestimates critical Pti(CO2).
