Open Access Abstract Introduction Sepsis may impair mitochondrial utilization of oxygen. Since hepatic dysfunction is a hallmark of sepsis we hypothesized that the liver is more susceptible to mitochondrial dysfunction than the peripheral tissues such as the skeletal muscle. We studied the effect of prolonged endotoxin infusion on liver muscle and kidney mitochondrial respiration and on hepatosplanchnic oxygen transport and microcirculation in pigs. Methods Twenty anesthetized pigs were randomized to receive either endotoxin or saline infusion for 24 hours. Muscle liver and kidney mitochondrial respiration was assessed. The cardiac output thermodilution and the carotid superior mesenteric and kidney arterial portal venous ultrasound Doppler and microcirculatory blood flow laser Doppler were measured and systemic and regional oxygen transport and lactate exchange were calculated. Results Endotoxin infusion induced hyperdynamic shock and .
