Esophageal Doppler: noninvasive cardiac output monitor.
In this article we describe the esophageal Doppler, a noninvasive, instantaneous cardiac output monitor. Its reliability has been demonstrated to be comparable to that of other current techniques used in the clinical arena to measure cardiac output. It helps guiding intravascular fluid resuscitation by quantifying the increase in flow in response to fluid challenges and by indicating the platea...
متن کاملComparison of continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound monitor and echocardiography to assess cardiac output in intensive care patients.
BACKGROUND Continuous-wave Doppler (CWD) ultrasound through the left ventricular outflow tract is one modality used for non-invasive cardiac output measurement. The ultrasonic cardiac output monitor (USCOM) is a relatively new monitor which uses a small, transcutaneous ultrasound probe to measure cardiac output with CWD via the suprasternal window. It is faster and less complex to train new use...
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 کاملAnthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity: cardiac monitoring by continuous wave-Doppler ultrasound cardiac output monitoring and correlation to echocardiography.
BACKGROUND Anthracyclines are agents with a wellknown cardiotoxicity. The study sought to evaluate the hemodynamic response to an anthracycline using realtime continuous-wave (CW)-Doppler ultrasound cardiac output monitoring (USCOM) and echocardiography in combination with serum biomarkers. METHODS 50 patients (26 male, 24 female, median age 59 years) suffering from various types of cancer re...
متن کاملClinical evaluation of USCOM ultrasonic cardiac output monitor in cardiac surgical patients in intensive care unit.
BACKGROUND The USCOM ultrasonic cardiac output monitor (USCOM Pty Ltd, Coffs Harbour, NSW, Australia) is a non-invasive device that determines cardiac output by continuous-wave Doppler ultrasound. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of the USCOM device compared with the thermodilution technique in intensive care patients who had just undergone cardiac surgery. METHODS We conduc...
