A simplified method for calculation of the leftto-right shunt from a single earpiece dye-dilution curve.

چکیده
In a preceding paper of ours,1 it has been reported that the estimation of shunt magnitudes can be done by using a single earpiece dye-dilution curve with some correction of the build-up time in infants and children with the left-to-right shunt. The present report describes a new, simplified method devised for the calcula tion of the shunt values using a single earpiece dye-dilution curve, because the calculation method adopted so far is complicated and tedious in practical use.

Detection of bronchial blood flow from earpiece dye-dilution curve.
In an attempt to detect an increased bronchial blood flow in man from the earpiece dye-dilution curve, the reliability of three indexes was investigated by comparing them with the values of bronchial blood flow measured from the left atrial dye-dilution curve following dye injection into the aortic root. The first index is obtained from the Cp method, in which the ratio of the peak concentratio...

Indicator dilution technique is more widely used during cardiac catheterization for the diagnosis and rough estimate of the size of intracardiac shunts and valvular regurgitation (Korner and Shillingford, 1955; Fox and Wood, 1957; Swan and Wood, 1957; Woodward et al., 1957; Shillingford, 1958; Carter et al., 1959; Carleton et al., 1960; Jose et al., 1960). Evans blue dye (T-1824) has long been ...

The infants and children subjected to this study consisted of 21 cases with ventricular septal defect, 9 cases with atrial septal defect, 3 cases with patent ductus arteriosus, one case with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return and 3 cases with the innocent murmurs (cf. Tables 1 and 2). The right-heart catheterization was performed in all the cases according to the conventional Fick proced...
متن کاملThe value of dye dilution curves in the diagnosis of intracardiac shunts.
prolonged, and systemic recirculation of blood and dye causes an absence of the normal secondary peak of dye concentration. The appearance and build-up times are normal. The prolongation of the disappearance slope is only partly related to the cardiac output and cannot be used alone in the diagnosis of a left-to-right shunt. Broadbent and Wood (1954) have suggested that if the ratio of the disa...
متن کاملA Simplified Method for Quantitating Left-to-Right Shunts from Arterial Dilution
This report presents a new, simple and reliable method of quantitating left-to-right shunts from arterial dilution curves. When indicator (e.g., indocyanine green) is injected centrally (right ventricle or pulmonary artery) and blood is withdrawn rapidly from either the aorta or other central systemic artery, in the presence of a left-to-right shunt the recorded indicator-dilution curve usually...
