Correlation of Cardiac Output by Arterial Contour-Derived Cardiac Output Monitor Versus Pulmonary Artery Catheter in Liver Transplant: Experience at an Indian Center.

Objective: Arterial pulse-derived cardiac output monitors are routinely employed to guide hemodynamic management during liver transplant surgery. In this study, we sought to assess the reliability by evaluating the agreement of the cardiac output measured by the FloTrac Vigileo versus pulmonary artery catheter (continuous cardiac output) at specified times during liver transplant.

Methods: Liver transplant database with cardiac output values measured by FloTrac Vigileo and continuous cardiac output was analyzed retrospectively at a tertiary care hospital.
