Impedance cardiography for the assessment of cardiac function during exercise. 1979

T Fujinami, and S Nakano, and K Nakayama, and K Takada

1. Impedance cardiography proved valuable to estimate the stroke volume and other cardiac parameters noninvasively, when the electrical resistivity of the blood was corrected with hematocrit. 2. Cardiac response to graded exercise on a bicycle ergometer up to the maximal load in healthy young and active middle-aged subjects was divided into four phases from the changes in cardiac parameters such as stroke volume, cardiac output, ejection index and height of the atrial wave. 3. The ischemic patients did not tolerate well the exercise after the second phase or drift phase of exercise. 4. Physical training enhanced the cardiac function in work through increase in cardiac output and work load.

D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D010101 Oxygen Consumption The rate at which oxygen is used by a tissue; microliters of oxygen STPD used per milligram of tissue per hour; the rate at which oxygen enters the blood from alveolar gas, equal in the steady state to the consumption of oxygen by tissue metabolism throughout the body. (Stedman, 25th ed, p346) Consumption, Oxygen,Consumptions, Oxygen,Oxygen Consumptions
D010701 Phonocardiography Graphic registration of the heart sounds picked up as vibrations and transformed by a piezoelectric crystal microphone into a varying electrical output according to the stresses imposed by the sound waves. The electrical output is amplified by a stethograph amplifier and recorded by a device incorporated into the electrocardiograph or by a multichannel recording machine. Phonocardiographies
D010992 Plethysmography, Impedance Recording changes in electrical impedance between electrodes placed on opposite sides of a part of the body, as a measure of volume changes in the path of the current. (Stedman, 25th ed) Rheography,Impedance Plethysmography,Impedance Plethysmographies,Plethysmographies, Impedance,Rheographies
D012016 Reference Values The range or frequency distribution of a measurement in a population (of organisms, organs or things) that has not been selected for the presence of disease or abnormality.

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.

D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.
