pubmed-article:8934344 | pubmed:abstractText | A semi-continuous thermodilution method (CCO) was recently developed to measure cardiac output with less risk of bacterial contamination, fluid overload, and user-induced errors than the classical bolus technique (BCO). Previous comparison between these two methods showed negligible bias. However, large limits of agreement suggest that the two methods are not interchangeable. We hypothesized that this poor agreement may be due to differences in reproducibility. | lld:pubmed |
