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

Completed

• Conditions: Cardiac Disease

• Registration Number: NCT02331342
• Lead Sponsor: Universitätsmedizin Mannheim

Brief 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.
