Understanding cardiac output
Cardiac output is the amount of blood the heart pumps in 1 minute, and it is dependent on the heart rate, contractility, preload, and afterload. Understanding of the applicability and practical relevance of each of these four components is important when interpreting cardiac output values. In the present article, we use a simple analogy comparing cardiac output with the speed of a bicycle to he...

متن کاملEndotracheal cardiac output monitor.
BACKGROUND The endotracheal cardiac output monitor (ECOM) is a new device that uses an endotracheal tube with multiple electrodes to measure cardiac output (CO). It measures the changes in electrical impedance caused by pulsatile blood flow in the aorta. The system was tested for safety and efficacy in 10 swine. METHODS Swine (60-80 kg) were chronically instrumented with a transit time flow p...
متن کاملCardiac output by Portapres.
Portapres derives continuous estimates of cardiac output from the peripheral pulse and has the potential to be an extremely valuable physiological and clinical tool. We assessed Portapres estimates of cardiac output in healthy subjects at rest, during maximal treadmill exercise ( n = 8) and during decreases caused by orthostatic stress ( n = 8). Comparison with a rebreathing method indicated th...
