ABSTRACT:
Procedure and device for determining cardiac output volume which involves applying an electrical potential to create a current flow through tissue of the patient's heart, placing a first measuring electrode on skin of the patient near the heart and inserting a second measuring electrode into the patient's body at a position on an opposite side of the heart from the first measuring electrode so that a straight-line heart-traversing projection extends through the heart between the first and the second measuring electrodes. In one embodiment the second measuring electrode is in a blood vessel and in another embodiment there are a plurality of second measuring electrodes with the best one being determined by Electrocardiogram equipment.
