Measurement of Cardiac Output by Thermodilution
Abstract
THE functional assessment of myocardial performance includes a measurement of cardiac output. Such precise diagnostic information is particularly valuable in patients with cardiac disease who are undergoing catheterization or open-heart surgery. In the intensive-care unit, a major goal of treatment for the critically ill is frequently the improvement of myocardial function. Serial determinations of cardiac output in these circumstances can be valuable adjuncts in guiding fluid and drug therapy.Information on cardiac output has not been available for routine clinical use, principally because measurement technics have been difficult and time consuming. Thermodilution methodology obviates many of these technical problems. This . . .

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
