Measurement of cardiac index by transpulmonary thermodilution using an implanted central venous access port: a prospective study in patients scheduled for oncologic high-risk surgery. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Transpulmonary thermodilution allows the measurement of cardiac index for high risk surgical patients. Oncologic patients often have a central venous access (port-a-catheter) for chronic treatment.

Validation of transpulmonary thermodilution variables in hemodynamically stable patients with heart diseases. [PDF]
BACKGROUND Transpulmonary thermodilution is recommended in the treatment of critically ill patients presenting with complex shock. However, so far it has not been validated in hemodynamically stable patients with heart disease. METHODS We assessed the

A prospective study to evaluate the accuracy of pulse power analysis to monitor cardiac output in critically ill patients [PDF]
Background Intermittent measurement of cardiac output may be performed using a lithium dilution technique (LiDCO). This can then be used to calibrate a pulse power algorithm of the arterial waveform which provides a continuous estimate of this variable ...

Transpulmonary thermodilution curve and the cross-talk phenomenon [PDF]
Introduction • Transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) and the Pulse Contour Cardiac Output (PiCCOTM) technique is a hemodynamic monitoring system gaining recognition and wide usage in the intensive care setting [1]. • TPTD operates via a single thermal indicator technique to determine cardiac index (CI), and derivatives volumetric variables [2].

Bench-to-bedside review: The importance of the precision of the reference technique in method comparison studies - with specific reference to the measurement of cardiac output. [PDF]
Bland-Altman analysis is used for assessing agreement between two measurements of the same clinical variable. In the field of cardiac output monitoring, its results, in terms of bias and limits of agreement, are often difficult to interpret, leading ...

Comparing transpulmonary thermodilution monitoring to lung ultrasound during pneumonia: an observational study [PDF]
Introduction: Monitoring lung function during pneumonia is essential for the evaluation of the effectiveness of therapy in ICU patients. Among various bedside techniques, two particularly interesting are the lung ultrasound and the transpulmonary ...
