ABSTRACT
Objective. To determine capillary lactate levels in extremities with acute arterial insufficiency prior to
revascularization, at 30 and 120 min after revascularization.
Material and methods. A case series study was carried out in the Angiology and Vascular Surgery
Service of the Centro Médico Nacional de Occidente, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social. A capillary
lactate measurement was performed prior to surgery for the patients included in the study, 30 and 120
min after revascularization of the affected limb.
Results. We analyzed 30 cases of acute arterial insufficiency, 10 of upper limbs and 20 of lower extremities.
The mean capillary lactate found in the upper extremities during the initial assessment was 4.5
± 1.8 mmol/L, at 30 min at 3.1 ± 1.1 mmol/L and at 2 h at 2.5 ± 1.2 mmol/L. The decrease in lactate
observed in these patients was not statistically significant. In the lower extremities, the mean capillary
lactate during the initial assessment was 7.8 ± 2.4 mmol/L, 30 min after 4.8 ± 1.1 mmol/L and at 2 h
4.3 ± 1.1 mmol/L, its decrease being statistically significant.
Conclusions. Capillary lactate shows immediate changes after revascularization, so it could be useful
to determine the success of the procedure, when re-occlusion or non-reflux syndrome is suspected. There
was evidence of statistically significant decreases in lower extremities.
