  • Title: Single catheter technique for accurate cardiac outputs from left ventricle.
    Author: Sanders M, Onah J, Lichstein E, Hollander G, Greengart A, Rivera M.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1983; 9(1):97-103. PubMed ID: 6339070.
    Abstract:
    We report our experience in cardiac output measurements using a single catheter for left ventricular green dye injection with sampling from the side arm of a femoral artery introducer sheath. This technique is compared to thermal dilution (20 patients) and pulmonary artery green dye injection (20 patients). There were no significant differences between the single catheter left ventricular method and the other two accepted methods for measuring cardiac output.
