UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D002302 Cardiac Output The volume of BLOOD passing through the HEART per unit of time. It is usually expressed as liters (volume) per minute so as not to be confused with STROKE VOLUME (volume per beat). Cardiac Outputs,Output, Cardiac,Outputs, Cardiac
D002307 Cardiography, Impedance A type of impedance plethysmography in which bioelectrical impedance is measured between electrodes positioned around the neck and around the lower thorax. It is used principally to calculate stroke volume and cardiac volume, but it is also related to myocardial contractility, thoracic fluid content, and circulation to the extremities. Impedance, Transthoracic,Plethysmography, Impedance, Transthoracic,Impedance Cardiography,Impedance Plethysmography, Transthoracic,Plethysmography, Transthoracic Impedance,Transthoracic Impedance Plethysmography,Cardiographies, Impedance,Impedance Cardiographies,Impedance Plethysmographies, Transthoracic,Impedances, Transthoracic,Plethysmographies, Transthoracic Impedance,Transthoracic Impedance,Transthoracic Impedance Plethysmographies,Transthoracic Impedances
D006801 Humans Members of the species Homo sapiens. Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D013815 Thermodilution Measurement of blood flow based on induction at one point of the circulation of a known change in the intravascular heat content of flowing blood and detection of the resultant change in temperature at a point downstream. Thermodilutions
