Introduction Cardiac output (CO) monitoring is indicated only in selected patients. In cardiac
surgical patients, perioperative haemodynamic management is often guided by CO …

Introduction We compared the ability of two devices estimating cardiac output from arterial
pressure-curve analysis to track the changes in cardiac output measured with …

Introduction Monitoring of the cardiac output by continuous arterial pulse contour (CO
PiCCOpulse) analysis is a clinically validated procedure proved to be an alternative to the …

Introduction Uncalibrated arterial pulse power analysis has been recently introduced for
continuous monitoring of cardiac index (CI). The aim of the present study was to compare …

Introduction The reliability of pulse pressure analysis to estimate cardiac output is known to
be affected by arterial load changes. However, the contribution of each aspect of arterial …

Introduction This study was designed to compare the clinical acceptability of two cardiac
output (CO) monitoring systems: a pulse wave contour-based system (FloTrac-Vigileo) and a …

Results Bland–Altman analysis of the differences between CCO and ICO and between
APCO and ICO (Fig. 1) were conducted. The analysis yielded a mean bias and precision …

Introduction Monitoring cardiac output (CO) may allow early detection of haemodynamic
instability, aiming to reduce morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Continuous …

Introduction Continuous cardiac output monitoring is used for early detection of
hemodynamic instability and guidance of therapy in critically ill patients. Recently, the …

Introduction Blood pressure measurements frequently guide management in critical care.
Direct readings, commonly from a major artery, are considered to be the gold standard …
