MEASUREMENT OF CARDIAC OUTPUT AND BLOOD VOLUME BY NON-INVASIVE DETECTION OF INDICATOR DILUTION FOR HEMODIALYSIS

摘要

A system and method of non-invasive or minimally invasive evaluating the cardiovascular system parameters to estimate the cardiac output and circulating blood volume of a patient undergoing hemodialysis. Intravascular indicators are stimulated, and emissions patterns detected for computation of cardiac output, cardiac index, blood volume and other indicators of cardiovascular health before and during hemodialysis.
