Study summary

Cardiac output (CO) is an important parameter in the diagnosis and therapy of cardiac diseases. The aim of the study at hand was to evaluate NICOM (bioreactance) as a new method for determinion of CO and to compare it to Innocor (inert gas rebreathing), which previously showed promising results.
