In this study, we compared continuous cardiac output (CO) obtained from the femoral arterial pressure by simulation of an aortic input impedance model [model-simulated cardiac output (MCO)] to thermodilution cardiac output (TDCO) determined by bolus injection during liver transplantation. Both varia
## Abstract A thermodilution technique is used to measure the flow of hemolymph through the heart of crabs. The technique consists of injecting a small volume of cold filtered sea water into the ventricle and monitoring temperature changes with time in an artery immediately downstream from the hear
**Summary** Thermodilution cardiac output measurement assumes that the temperature within the pulmonary artery is stable during the measurement period. This may not be achieved in clinical practice because of temperature changes that are not solely produced by the thermal indicator. Such temperature
