Unveiling the Microvasculature: The Index of Microcirculatory Resistance and Its Expanding Role in Cardiovascular Care. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) is a cutting‐edge, wire‐based tool that advances the capability assessment of coronary microvascular function. By utilizing distal coronary pressure and mean transit time under maximal hyperemia, IMR delivers consistent, reproducible insights into the microvasculature's dynamic health.

Studies comparing thermodilution (TD) and the direct Fick method (dFM) for cardiac output (CO) measurement are rare. We compared CO measurements between TD (2–5 cold water injections), the dFM, and indirect Fick method (iFM) at rest and during exercise ...

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 ...

Comparison of two minimally invasive cardiac-output monitoring systems with different algorithms
Objectives: Minimally invasive haemodynamic monitoring is important in goal-directed therapy. The algorithms used by the FloTrac/Vigileo (FV) and lithium dilution cardiac output rapid (LiDCOrapid) (LR) measurement systems for cardiac output (CO ...
