Investigating the relationship between intrathoracic blood volume index and cardiac index
Intensive Care Medicine, 2000To determine whether cardiac index and intrathoracic blood volume index are "mathematically coupled" under euvolaemic conditions with increasing levels of inotropic support.Prospective case series.A 14-bed general intensive care unit in a university-affiliated hospital.Twelve mechanically ventilated patients, monitored with the COLD system and ...

Cardiac Function Tests as Indexes of Fitness
Research Quarterly. American Association for Health, Physical Education and Recreation, 1969Abstract Ventricular function measurements such as the Tension Period (TP) and the Q to First Heart Sound Interval (Q-1HSI) have received increasing attention as possible simple indexes of a person's cardiovascular fitness. In order to evaluate the usefulness of these tests for measuring fitness, they were compared with fitness scores obtained using a ...

Cardiac index monitoring by femoral arterial thermodilution after cardiac surgery in children
Journal of Critical Care, 2014The aim of this study is to determine whether the maintenance of cardiac index (CI) measured by femoral arterial thermodilution during the postoperative period after heart surgery in children is related to short-term outcome.A prospective observational study in a pediatric intensive care unit at a referral hospital for congenital heart disease was ...

Measuring cardiac index with a focused cardiac ultrasound examination in the ED
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2012Noninvasive technology may assist the emergency department (ED) physician in determining the hemodynamic status in critically ill patients. The objective of our study was to show that ED physicians can accurately measure cardiac index (CI) by performing a bedside focused cardiac ultrasound examination.A convenience sample of adult subjects were ...

A Simple Radiocardiographic Index of Cardiac Output
Radiology, 1963The cardiac output may be determined from a radiocardiographic tracing. This method is somewhat tedious because it requires, in addition to the tracing, the determination of the total blood volume. The usual method for calculating the cardiac output from the radiocardiogram is a modification of that of MacIntyre et al.

Echocardiography as an Index of Cardiac Performance
Hospital Practice, 1978Ultrasound imaging of the heart provides a noninvasive technique for assessing cardiac performance and diagnosing a wide range of disorders. Recent improvements in two-dimensional, planar instrumentation promise to make echocardiography even more versatile, permitting more comprehensive views of left ventricular function, valve orifice areas, and the ...

Relationship between amrinone plasma concentration and cardiac index
Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1981Amrinone was given to 14 patients with congestive heart failure as an intravenous bolus (1 mg/sec) at doses ranging from 0.5 to 3.5 mg/kg. Simultaneous determinations of cardiac index were made by thermodilution and of amrinone plasma concentration by high-performance liquid chromatography.

CARDIAC INDEX MONITORING IN BARIATRIC SURGERY
MEDICUSThe aim of the study was to compare the non-invasive Nexfin® system and the semi-invasive FloTrac™ system for measuring cardiac index (CI) in patients with morbid obesity. Materials and methods. A single-center prospective cohort study included 20 adult patients with a BMI of ≥30 kg/m2 and ASA II status or higher.
