Before the doctor starts the new antibiotics Ceftazidime/avibactam, Mr. Jones suddenly develops fever, hy- potension, tachycardia, and lactic acidosis. If the venous oxygen saturations are measured, Mr. Jones will have SvO2 compared to his normal situation since his tissue oxygen extraction is low under this shock.
