Theoretical Basis of Indicator-Dilution Methods For Measuring Flow and Volume
• The purpose here is to inquire into the justification of the use of the indicator-dilution principle for measurement of fluid flow and volume. What is the validity of the formal expressions? Upon what assumptions are they based? What are the effects of specified violations of these assumptions? An indicator, in the sense used here, is a substance that permits observations of some element of v...
متن کاملThe multiple indicator-dilution method for the study of enzyme heterogeneity in liver: theoretical basis.
The theoretical basis of the use of the multiple indicator dilution technique to account for the heterogeneous distribution (or zonation) of enzymes in the liver was explored. The microcirculation was assumed to consist of identical capillaries perfused in parallel, with enzymatic activities for drug metabolism being distributed uniformly over the upstream half (periportal or pp) or the downstr...
متن کاملMeasuring gastric volume by dye dilution.
The double sampling method for measuring gastric volumes is analysed mathematically. It is shown to cause magnification of randomly occurring analytical errors in dye concentration. The errors which arise in calculated gastric volume depend on extent of analytical error, concentration of dye initially placed in the stomach, repetition of analysis cycle, and ratio of volume of added dye to gastr...
متن کاملOverestimation of left ventricular volume by the indicator dilution technique.
• Since the work of Bing and co-workers and the subsequent observations of Holt, the indicator dilution technique has been used to measure ventricular volume. The validity of the technique depends upon thorough mixing of indicator with ventricular blood. However, experimental data have been presented by Irisawa et al. and subsequently by Swan and Beck suggesting that requisite mixing does not o...
متن کاملA new gas dilution method for measuring body volume.
This study was designed to examine the validity of a new gas dilution method (GD) for measuring human body volume and to compare its accuracy with the results obtained by the underwater weighing method (UW). We measured the volume of plastic bottles and 16 subjects (including two females), aged 18-42 years with each method. For the bottles, the volume measured by hydrostatic weighing was correl...
