New Advances in Monitoring Cardiac Output in Circulatory Mechanical Assistance Devices. A Validation Study in a Porcine Model
Cardiac output (CO) measurement by continuous pulmonary artery thermodilution (COCTD) has been studied in patients with pulsatile-flow LVADs (left ventricular assist devices), confirming the clinical utility. However, it has not been validated in patients with continuous-flow LVADs. Therefore, the a...
