Cardiac Output During Exercise: Thermodilution Versus Direct Fick [PDF]
Background Accurate cardiac output (CO) measurements during exercise are essential for the diagnosis of exercise pulmonary hypertension (PH), exercise precapillary PH, and exercise postcapillary PH.

Basics of Coronary Thermodilution
Coronary microvascular dysfunction is a highly prevalent condition in both obstructive and nonobstructive coronary artery disease. Intracoronary thermodilution is a promising technique to investigate coronary microvascular (dys)function in vivo and to assess its most important metric: microvascular resistance.

Transpulmonary thermodilution: advantages and limits
Background For complex patients in the intensive care unit or in the operating room, many questions regarding their haemodynamic management cannot be answered with simple clinical examination.

How to Reliably Measure Stroke Volume Index in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: A Comparison of Thermodilution, Direct and Indirect Fick, and Cardiac MRI [PDF]
Background. Stroke volume index (SVI) is an important prognostic parameter in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The direct Fick (DF) method represents the gold standard for measuring it.

Noninvasive cardiac output measurements are inaccurate in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation [PDF]
Background Noninvasive cardiac output (CO) measured using ClearSight™ eliminates the need for intra-arterial catheter insertion. The purpose of this study was to examine the accuracy of non-invasive CO measurement in patients with severe aortic stenosis (

Background Pulmonary artery thermodilution is the clinical reference method for cardiac output monitoring. Because both continuous and intermittent pulmonary artery thermodilution are used in clinical practice it is important to know whether cardiac ...

Four different methods of measuring cardiac index during cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy [PDF]
Background Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are high-risk extensive abdominal surgery. During high-risk surgery, less invasive methods for cardiac index (CI) measurement have been widely used in operating ...

Background Coronary flow reserve (CFR) and microvascular resistance reserve (MRR) are physiological parameters to assess coronary microvascular dysfunction. CFR and MRR can be assessed using bolus or continuous thermodilution, and the correlation between
