Objective: To assess cardiac output in pediatric patients with the pressure recording analytical method (PRAM) and the Doppler echocardiography method. PRAM derives cardiac output from beat-by-beat ...
Decreased cardiac output is when your heart can no longer pump enough oxygen to meet the demands of your body. A rapid heart rate is a common symptom, but there are others, too. Your heart is ...
In the 48 patients, CO estimated by PRAM was 2.6 ± 1.7 L/min (range 0.92-8.20), and CO obtained by Doppler echocardiography was 2.7 ± 1.6 L/min (range 0.89-7.48). A significant correlation was found ...
