Haemodynamic targets, such as cardiac output, mean arterial blood pressure and central venous oxygen saturations, remain crude predictors of tissue perfusion and oxygen supply at a cellular level. Shocked patients may appear adequately resuscitated based on normalization of global vital signs, yet they...
Overall, these effects lead to increased cardiac output with decreased right and left sided pressures [34]. Data on use of digoxin with modern HFrEF regimens is limited. The Digitalis Investigator Group (DIG) evaluated the effect of digoxin in patients with EF < 45% on ACEi and diuretics...
Cardiac output was measured by lithium indicator dilution and pulse power analysis. Patients were followed up for 60 days. Sixty-two patients were randomised to GDT and 60 patients to control treatment. The GDT group received more intravenous colloid (1,907 SD +/- 878 ml versus 1,204 SD +...

However, during a pre-season friendly the following year, Nouri collapsed after suffering a cardiac arrhythmia.He suffered permanent and severe brain damage following the incident, and a hugely promising career was tragically cut short. Getty Images Sport ...
An alternative approach is arterial waveform-derived cardiac output monitoring, in which the intravascular volume responsiveness indices (for example, stroke volume variation and pulse pressure variation) appear to be capable of providing acceptable data for guiding fluid management in mandatory ventilated ...
We believe that DO(2)I is a useful endpoint because it integrates three important variables, ie, hemoglobin concentration [Hb], arterial hemoglobin O(2) saturation, and cardiac output. We have found DO(2)I >or=500 mL O(2)/min-m2 to be an endpoint with more general applicability, but ...

摘要: An introduction is presented in which the editor discusses various reports within the issue on topics related to cardiovascular surgery practice in Brazil including the risk factors for low cardiac output syndrome and the use of an intra-aortic balloon in cardiac surgery....
CardiacOutputMonitorGoal-directedhemodynamicThe objective was to compare the impact of an early goal-directed hemodynamic therapy based on cardiac output monitoring (Endotracheal Cardiac Output Monitor, ECOM) with a standard of care on postoperative outcome following coronary surgery. This prospective, ...
