    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular physiology
    • Medical device engineering
    • Diagnostic technology

    Background:

    • Accurate cardiac output (CO) measurement is vital for assessing cardiovascular function.
    • Traditional indicator dilution methods often require manual operation and can lead to significant blood loss.
    • Serial CO analysis is challenging, especially in vulnerable populations like infants.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and describe an automated system for serial indicator dilution studies.
    • To eliminate the need for operator assistance during cardiac output analysis.
    • To minimize blood loss during repeated CO measurements.

    Main Methods:

    • An automated system was designed for serial indicator dilution studies.
    • The system integrates automatic indicator dye injection, blood sampling, and air monitoring.

  • Sampled blood is reinfused to prevent blood loss.

    • Main Results:

    • The automated system enables serial cardiac output analysis without operator intervention.
    • Indicator dye injection and blood sampling are performed automatically.
    • Blood reinfusion prevents blood loss, making the system suitable for critical applications.

    Conclusions:

    • The described automated system facilitates serial cardiac output analysis efficiently.
    • The system's ability to prevent blood loss is advantageous for infants and small animals.
    • This technology enhances the feasibility of repeated CO measurements in sensitive patient groups.
