A method for calculating left ventricular end-diastolic volume as an index of left ventricular preload from the pre-ejection period, ejection time, blood pressure, and stroke volume: a prospective, observational study
Abstract Background Left ventricular end-diastolic volume (EDV) is a major determinant of cardiac preload. However, its use in fluid management is limited by the lack of a simple means to measure it noninvasively. This study presents a new noninvasive method that was validated against simultaneously...
