Transpulmonary thermodilution: advantages and limits
Critical Care, 2017 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. In particular, arterial pressure allows only a rough estimation of cardiac output. Transpulmonary thermodilution is a technique that provides a full haemodynamic assessment

Transpulmonary thermodilution curves for detection of shunt [PDF]
Intensive Care Medicine, 2010 Monitoring using transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) via a single thermal indicator technique allows measurement of cardiac output, extravascular lung water (EVLW) and volumetric variables.This report describes two cases of systemic-venous circulation shunt generating early recirculation of thermal indicator with overestimation of EVLW.In the case of ...

The thermodilution method for the clinical assessment of cardiac output [PDF]
, 1995 The application of the thermodilution method in conditions associated with variations in blood flow implies a misuse of the Stewart Hamilton equation. Therefore, we studied the reliability of the thermodilution method for the estimation of mean cardiac ...

Impact of shunt on the transpulmonary thermodilution curve [PDF]
Intensive Care Medicine, 2010 Dear Editor, We read with interest the comments by Nusmeier et al. [1] regarding our article entitled ‘‘Transpulmonary thermodilution curves for detection of shunt’’ [2]. The authors found that our explanation (Appendix, page 1086) was confused [2]! Thus, these authors proposed a much simpler and easier mathematical method to support our explanations ...
