Fast reduction of blood water volume due to ultra-filtration via hemodialysis machine and critical threshold of blood water volume can result in clinical complications such as hypotension. When blood water volume reduces during hemodialysis process, the concentration of blood forming elements will increase. One of the methods for the monitoring of the concentration changes is ultrasonic speed m...

background: cardiac output (co) is the total volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute and is a function of heart rate and stroke volume. co is one of the most important parameters for monitoring cardiac function, estimating global oxygen delivery and understanding the causes of high blood pressure. hence, measuring co has always been a matter of interest to researchers and clinicians. sev...

Tlie "equilibration" method introduced by Bradley to measure circulating "splanchnic blood volume" has been applied to the estimation of "pulmonary blood volume." The theoretic and practical aspects of the method are analyzed. Values for circulating "pulmonary blood volume" determined in anesthetized dogs were not significantly different from values obtained by the "mean circulation time output...
