Background Accurate assessment of cardiac output is critical to the diagnosis and management of various cardiac disease states; however, clinical standards of direct Fick and thermodilution are invasive.

Single Injection Thermodilution [PDF]
Background Application of the Stewart-Hamilton equation in the thermodilution technique requires flow to be constant. In patients in whom ventilation of the lungs is controlled, flow modulations may occur leading to large errors in the estimation of mean cardiac output.

The contribution of veno-venous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) to systemic oxygen delivery is determined by the ratio of total extracorporeal blood flow (Q˙EC) to cardiac output (Q˙).

Extravascular lung water index, pulmonary vascular permeability index, and global end-diastolic volume index in mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients requiring prone position ventilation: a preliminary retrospective study [PDF]
Background There is a lack of data on extravascular lung water index (EVLWi), pulmonary vascular permeability index (PVPi), and global end-diastolic volume index (GEDVi) during prone position ventilation (PPV) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19 ...

Precision of the transpulmonary thermodilution measurements [PDF]
Abstract Introduction We wanted to determine the number of cold bolus injections that are necessary for achieving an acceptable level of precision for measuring cardiac index (CI), indexed global end-diastolic volume (GEDVi) and indexed extravascular lung water (EVLWi) by transpulmonary thermodilution.

Cardiac output (CO) measurement is mandatory in patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). Thermodilution with pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) remains the clinical gold standard to measure CO in these patients, however it is associated with ...

Non-invasive Oscillometry-Based Estimation of Cardiac Output – Can We Use It in Clinical Practice?
While invasive thermodilution techniques remain the reference methods for cardiac output (CO) measurement, there is a currently unmet need for non-invasive techniques to simplify CO determination, reduce complications related to invasive procedures ...
