Comparison of NICOM and Innocor for Non-Invasive Determination of Cardiac Output

January 5, 2015 updated by: Joachim Saur, Universitätsmedizin Mannheim
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.
