A prospective study to evaluate the accuracy of pulse power analysis to monitor cardiac output in critically ill patients

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Intermittent measurement of cardiac output may be performed using a lithium dilution technique (LiDCO). This can then be used to calibrate a pulse power algorithm of the arterial waveform which provides a continuous estimate of this...
