Comparative estimation of central haemodynamics during dynamic load by impedance cardiography and radiocardiography.

77 unselected patients were examined simultaneously by impedance cardiography and radiocardiography in the recumbent position during dynamic exercise (bicycle ergometry). In all cases evaluable impedance curves were registered till the 100 W load. Stroke volume, estimated by impedance cardiography, is at rest and during exercise by about 30% lower compared to its value determined by radiocardiography.

[Determination of central hemodynamics in dynamic stress using impedance cardiography in comparison to radiocardiography].

77 unselected patients were examined synchronously by impedance and radiocardiography in recumbent position during dynamic exercise. In all cases the load of evaluable impedance curves was possible till 100 watts. Stroke volume, estimated by impedance cardiography, is lower about 30% at rest and during exercise compared to its estimation by radiocardiography.

[Comparative studies of contractile heart function using impedance, echo-, radio- and apex cardiography].

89 patients (31 healthy subjects, 31 hypertensives, and 27 patients with coronary heart disease) were examined simultaneously by means of impedance (ICG)-, ultrasonic (UCG)-, radio (RCG)-, and calib. and diff. apex cardiography (cACG).
