• Blood lactate is a strong predictor of mortality, and repeated blood lactate assays are recommended during surgery in high-risk patients. We hypothesized that the use of intravascular microdialysis incorporated in a central venous catheter would be interchangeable with the reference blood gas technique to monitor changes in blood lactate. Microdialysis and central venous blood lactate measurements were recorded simultaneously in high-risk cardiac surgical patients. The correlation between absolute values was determined by linear regression, and the Bland–Altman test for repeated measurements was used to compare bias, precision, and limits of agreement. Changes in lactate measurements were evaluated with a four-quadrant plot and trend interchangeability method (TIM). In the 23 patients analysed, the central venous catheter was used as part of standard care, with no complications. The correlation coefficient for absolute values (n=104) was 0.96 (P<0.0001). The bias, precision, and limits of agreement were −0.19, 0.51, and −1.20 to 0.82 mmol litre−1, respectively. The concordance rate for changes in blood lactate measurements (n=80) was 94% with the four-quadrant plot. In contrast, the TIM showed that 23 (29) changes in lactate measurements were not interpretable, and among the remaining 57 (71) interpretable changes, 18 (32) were interchangeable, 8 (14) were in the grey zone, and 31 (54) were not interchangeable. Microdialysis with a central venous catheter appears to provide reliable absolute blood lactate values. Although changes in blood lactate measurements showed an excellent concordance rate, changes between the two methods were poorly interchangeable with the TIM. NCT02296593.
