Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Do serial lactate measurements using microdialysis of interstitial fluid correlate with plasma lactate in children after cardiac surgery?
Answer: Serial lactate measurements in microdialysis fluid of subcutaneous adipose tissue are feasible, but cannot be used as a reliable interchangeable method for plasma lactate analysis in children after CHS at this time. Whether this technique has its own place in the assessment of the overall hemodynamic status and tissue perfusion in children after CHS needs to be addressed in future studies.
Output (English): no
