[Comparative evaluation of the cardiac stroke and minute volumes by impedance cardiography and radiocardiography]. 1980

V Draganov, and E Sheĭretova

In 32 health subjects and 33 patients, mainly with acquired heart defects, the indices of central hemodynamics were determined, namely -- stroke and minute volume and their indices via impedance-cardiographic and radiocardiographic methods. A very good correlation was established between those indices, obtained via both methods. Impedance-cardiography is concluded to be a very convenient easily applicable method in determining cardiac hemodynamics, both in healthy subjects and cardiac patients with acquired heart defects.

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
D002306	Cardiac Volume	The volume of the HEART, usually relating to the volume of BLOOD contained within it at various periods of the cardiac cycle. The amount of blood ejected from a ventricle at each beat is STROKE VOLUME.	Heart Volume,Cardiac Volumes,Heart Volumes,Volume, Cardiac,Volume, Heart,Volumes, Cardiac,Volumes, Heart
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.
