Abstract
There are no studies examining interventricular (VV) delay optimization by an electrical cardiometry method in relation to subsequent cardiac function in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) -implanted patients. This study aimed to compare the VV delay in CRT-implanted patients by the dp/dt and electrical cardiometry and to examine the optimization of VV delay and improvement of cardiac function. We examined 19 consecutive CRT-implanted patients. The protocol included biventricular stimulation with either simultaneous or sequential pacing, and we evaluated systolic volume (SV) using an electrical cardiometry and the dp/dt of the left ventricle. The optimal VV delay was determined by the maximum SV using the electrical cardiometry. Two groups were defined, those whose increase in SV was at or above the median and those whose SV increase was below the median; changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The correlation between the VV delay optimized by the electrical cardiometry and dp/dt methods was high (R = 0.61, P = 0.006). Compared to the baseline SV (43.4 mL), the SV increased to 47.8 mL with simultaneous biventricular pacing (versus baseline P = 0.008) and further increased to 49.8 mL with optimized VV delay (versus simultaneous biventricular pacing P = 0.020). LVEF after 6 months significantly improved in the above-median SV increase group (37.6 versus 28.2%, P = 0.041), but not in the below-median SV increase group (26.5 versus 26.5%, P = 0.985). In conclusion, the optimal VV delay by electrical cardiometry method was almost concordant with that by the dp/dt method. Cardiac function significantly improved in the group with the above-median SV increase.

Abstract
Over the last decade, Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems have been provided significant research focus by researchers. CAD systems have been developed in order to minimise visual errors, to compensate manual interpretation, and to help medical staff to take decisions swiftly. These systems have been considered as powerful tools for a reliable, automatic, and low-cost monitoring and diagnosis. CAD systems are based on analysis and classification of several physiological signals for detecting and assessing different diseases related to the corresponding organ. The implementation of these systems requires the application of several advanced signal processing techniques. Specifically, in cardiology, CAD systems have achieved promising results in providing an accurate and rapid detection of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Particularly, the number of works on signal processing field for impedance cardiography (ICG) signals starts to grow slowly in recent years. This paper presents a review study of signal processing techniques applied to the ICG signal for the denoising, the analysis, the classification and the characterisation purposes. This review is intended to provide researchers with a broad overview of the currently used signal processing techniques for ICG signal analysis, as well as to improve future research by applying other recent advanced methods.

Impact of stroke work on the ability of left ventricular mass to account for pressure effects on function in a community with prevalent systemic flow-dependent hypertension.

Abstract
AIMS To determine whether the confounding influence of stroke work on left ventricular mass (LVM) limits the ability of LVM to detect hypertensive LV dysfunction in systemic flow-dependent hypertension. METHODS In a community with prevalent systemic flow-dependent hypertension (n = 709), arterial haemodynamics, LVM and LV function were determined using central arterial pressure, aortic velocity and diameter measurements in the outflow tract, and echocardiography with tissue Doppler imaging. RESULTS In multivariate models, stroke work showed markedly stronger relations with LVM index (LVMI) than blood pressure load [central arterial SBP (SBPc), backward wave pressure (Pb), 24-h SBP] (P < 0.0001 for comparisons). In contrast, although SBPc, Pb, and 24-h SBP were inversely associated with myocardial tissue shortening (s') and lengthening (e') velocity, stroke work was not. With adjustments for stroke work, positive relationships between SBPc, Pb, or 24-h SBP and LVMI were eliminated (P = 0.20 to P = 0.89), but strong relations between BP and s', e' or E/e' (P = 0.009 to P < 0.0001) remained. In mediation analysis, stroke work fully accounted for BP effects on LVMI, but explained none of the effects of BP on LV function. Hence LVMI accounted for little of the impact of BP load on LV function. Although LVMI beyond stroke work (inappropriate LVM) improved on relations between LVMI and s', it failed to improve on relations with e' or E/e' and contributed little beyond LVMI to the impact of BP on LV function. CONCLUSION In systemic flow-dependent hypertension, the impact of stroke work markedly limits the ability of LVM to account for adverse effects of hypertension on LV function.

Abstract
Passive leg raising (PLR) is a convenient and reliable test to predict fluid responsiveness. The ability of thoracic electrical bioimpedance cardiography (TEB) to monitor changes of cardiac output (CO) during PLR is unknown.In the present study, we measured CO in 61 patients with shock or dyspnea by TEB and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) during PLR procedure. Positive PLR responsiveness was defined as the velocity-time integral (VTI) ≥10% after PLR. TTE measured VTI in the left ventricular output tract. The predictive value of TEB parameters in PLR responders was tested. Furthermore, the agreement of absolute CO values between TEB and TTE measurements was assessed.Among the 61 patients, there were 28 PLR-responders and 33 non-responders. Twenty-seven patients were diagnosed with shock and 34 patients with dyspnea, with 55.6% (15/27) and 54.6% (18/34) non-responders, respectively. A change in TEB measured CO (ΔCO) ≥9.8% predicted PLR responders with 75.0% sensitivity and 78.8% specificity, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was 0.79. The Δd2Z/dt2 (a secondary derivative of the impedance wave) showed the best predictive value with AUROC of 0.90, the optimal cut point was -7.1% with 85.7% sensitivity and 87.9% specificity. Bias between TEB and TTE measured CO was 0.12 L/min, and the percentage error was 65.8%.TEB parameters had promising performance in predicting PLR responders, and the Δd2Z/dt2 had the best predictive value. The CO values measured by TEB were not interchangeable with TTE in critically ill settings.

Abstract
A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with acute cardiac insufficiency based on evidence of congestive heart failure. The non-invasive measurement of the cardiac output using an AESCULON® mini showed low cardiac output (CO, 3.9 L/min). We administered an intravenous diuretic for cardiac edema and dobutamine drip for low cardiac output. Soon after starting dobutamine at 3.2 γ (microg/kg/min), the CO improved to 6.8 L/min. Combination therapy of diuretic and dobutamine resolved the heart failure. CO measurement by an AESCULON® mini was safe, cost-effective, and convenient. Data output correlates with the CO by Swan-Ganz catheterization. The non-invasive measurement of the CO permitted a smooth recovery without recurrence in this patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pediatric hemodialysis (HD) patients have a high incidence of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The study aim was to investigate whether impedance cardiography (electrical velocimetry, EV) is suitable as a hemodynamic trend monitoring tool in pediatric patients during HD. METHODS Measurements by EV were obtained before, during, and after HD in a prospective single-center pediatric observational study. In total, 54 dialysis cycles in four different pediatric patients with end-stage kidney disease on chronic HD were included. EV parameters analyzed were heart rate (HR), stroke volume (SV), stroke volume index (SI), cardiac output (CO), cardiac index (CI), thoracic fluid content (TFC), index of contractility (ICON), stroke volume variation (SVV), variation of ICON (VIC), R-R interval (TRR), pre-ejection period (PEP), left ventricular ejection time (LVET), and systolic time ration (STR). Systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) was calculated. RESULTS EV did measure significant changes in cardiovascular parameters associated with HD. The following parameters increased after HD: HR (9%), SVV (19%), VIC (33%), PEP (8%), and STR (18%). A decrease after HD was measured in SV (18%), SI (18%), CO (10%), CI (10%), TFC (10%), ICON (7%), TRR (7%), LVET (8%), and LVET (8%). SVRI was not affected by HD. The changes were correlated to ultrafiltration. HD cycles without fluid withdrawal also altered cardiovascular parameters. CONCLUSIONS Pediatric HD with and without fluid withdrawal changes hemodynamic EV monitoring parameters. Possibly EV may be useful to optimize HD management in pediatric patients.

Abstract
Cardiac output monitoring is used in critically ill and high-risk surgical patients. Intermittent pulmonary artery thermodilution and transpulmonary thermodilution, considered the gold standard, are invasive and linked to complications. Therefore, many non-invasive cardiac output devices have been developed and studied. One of those is electrical cardiometry. The results of validation studies are conflicting, which emphasize the need for definitive validation of accuracy and precision. We performed a database search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library of Clinical Trials to identify studies comparing cardiac output measurement by electrical cardiometry and a reference method. Pooled bias, limits of agreement (LoA) and mean percentage error (MPE) were calculated using a random-effects model. A pooled MPE of less than 30% was considered clinically acceptable. A total of 13 studies in adults (620 patients) and 11 studies in pediatrics (603 patients) were included. For adults, pooled bias was 0.03 L min-1 [95% CI - 0.23; 0.29], LoA - 2.78 to 2.84 L min-1 and MPE 48.0%. For pediatrics, pooled bias was - 0.02 L min-1 [95% CI - 0.09; 0.05], LoA - 1.22 to 1.18 L min-1 and MPE 42.0%. Inter-study heterogeneity was high for both adults (I2 = 93%, p < 0.0001) and pediatrics (I2 = 86%, p < 0.0001). Despite the low bias for both adults and pediatrics, the MPE was not clinically acceptable. Electrical cardiometry cannot replace thermodilution and transthoracic echocardiography for the measurement of absolute cardiac output values. Future research should explore it's clinical use and indications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the equivalence of the ICON® electrical cardiometry (EC) haemodynamic monitor to measure cardiac output (CO) relative to transthoracic Doppler echocardiography (TTE) in paediatric patients with repaired coarctation of the aorta (CoA). APPROACH A group of n = 28 CoA patients and n = 27 matched controls were enrolled. EC and TTE were performed synchronously on each participant and CO measurements compared using linear regression and Bland-Altman analysis. The CoA group was further subdivided into two groups, with n = 10 and without n = 18 increased left ventricular outflow tract velocity (iLVOTv) for comparison. MAIN RESULTS CO measurements from EC and TTE in controls showed a strong correlation (R = 0.80, p < 0.001) and an acceptable percentage error (PE) of 28.1%. However, combining CoA and control groups revealed a moderate correlation (R = 0.57, p < 0.001) and a poor PE (44.2%). We suspected that the CO in a subset of CoA participants with iLVOTv was overestimated by TTE. Excluding the iLVOTv CoA participants improved the correlation (R = 0.77, p < 0.001) and resulted in an acceptable PE of 31.2%. SIGNIFICANCE CO measurements in paediatric CoA patients in the absence of iLVOTv are clinically equivalent between EC and TTE. The presence of iLVOTv may impact the accuracy of CO measurement by TTE, but not EC.

Abstract
Impedance cardiography measurement of cardiac output gained wide interest due to its ease of use and non-invasiveness. However, validation studies of different algorithms yielded diverging results. Bioreactance (BR) as a recent adaption differs fundamentally as the flow signal is derived from phase shifts. Our aim was to assess the accuracy and reproducibility of BR, as compared to the non-invasive gold standard--cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). We prospectively included 32 stable patients. BR was performed twice in the supine position and averaged over 30 seconds. Mean bias was 0.2 ± 1.8 l/minute (1 ± 28%, percentage error 55%) with limits of agreement ranging from -3.4 to 3.7 l/minute. Reproducibility was acceptable with a mean bias of 0.1 ± 0.9 l/minute (1 ± 14%, 27%). Low cardiac output was significantly overestimated (-1.1 ± 1.5 l/minute), while high cardiac output was underestimated (1.5 ± 1.7 l/minute), (P=0.001), although reproducibility was unaffected. Bias and weight were moderately correlated in men (r = 0.50, P=0.02). No differences for accuracy were found in nine patients who had an arrhythmia (0.3 ± 1.4 versus 0.1 ± 2.0 l/minute, P=0.76), while clinically relevant differences were found in patients with mild aortic valve disease (1.9 ± 2.2 versus -0.3 ± 1.7 l/minute, P=0.02). Overall, BR showed insufficient agreement with CMR, overestimating low and underestimating high cardiac output states. Reproducibility was acceptable and not negatively affected by the circulatory condition. Consequently, absolute values acquired with BR should be interpreted with caution and must not be used interchangeably in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Electrical velocimetry correlates well with established methods of measuring cardiac output (CO) such as thermodilution and echocardiography. In this study, we compared the cardiac function of children with single right ventricle (SRV) and single left ventricle (SLV) on non-invasive postoperative measurement of hemodynamic parameters using AESCULON® mini. METHODS Demographic, preoperative, and perioperative data were obtained from medical records. We retrospectively reviewed the AESCULON mini data of 21 patients with single ventricle who underwent Fontan operation. The patients were divided into two groups according to morphologic diagnosis: SRV (n = 9) and SLV (n = 12). The following hemodynamic parameters were analyzed: stroke volume (SV); CO; cardiac index (CI); stroke volume variation (SVV); and ventricular ejection time (VET). RESULTS Hemodynamic parameters were as follows (SRV vs SLV): heart rate (HR), 140.5 beats/min versus 121 beats/min; SV, 14.5 mL vs 19.9 mL; CO, 2 L/min vs 2.3 L/min; CI, 4.3 L/min/m2 versus 4.4 L/min/m2 ; SVV, 15.5% versus 13.9%; and VET, 167.7 s versus 197.7 s. HR and VET were statistically different between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS CI does not differ with laterality of the single ventricle. SRV VET, however, was significantly shorter than SLV VET in the acute postoperative period. Conversely, SRV HR was higher than SLV HR, which may mean that SRV compensates for lower VET by increasing HR.

Abstract
The assessment and optimization of cardiovascular and hemodynamic variables is a mainstay of patient management in the care for critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) or the operating room (OR). It is, therefore, of outstanding importance to meticulously validate technologies for hemodynamic monitoring and to study their applicability in clinical practice and, finally, their impact on treatment decisions and on patient outcome. In this regard, the Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing (JCMC) is an ideal platform for publishing research in the field of cardiovascular and hemodynamic monitoring. In this review, we highlight papers published last year in the JCMC in order to summarize and discuss recent developments in this research area.

Effect of patent ductus arteriosus and patent foramen ovale on left ventricular stroke volume measurement by electrical velocimetry in comparison to transthoracic echocardiography in neonates. J Clin Monit Comput 2016; 31:589-598. [PMID: 27072988 DOI: 10.1007/s10877-016-9878-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2015] [Accepted: 04/08/2016] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
This prospective single-center observational study compared impedance cardiography [electrical velocimetry (EV)] with transthoracic echocardiography (TTE, based on trans-aortic flow) and analyzed the influence of physiological shunts, such as patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) or patent foramen ovale (PFO), on measurement accuracy. Two hundred and ninety-one triplicate simultaneous paired left ventricular stroke volume (LVSV) measurements by EV (LVSVEV) and TTE (LVSVTTE) in 99 spontaneously breathing neonates (mean weight 3270 g; range 1227-4600 g) were included. For the whole cohort, the mean absolute LVSVEV was 5.5 mL, mean LVSVTTE was 4.9 mL, resulting in an absolute Bland-Altman bias of -0.7 mL (limits of agreement LOA -3.0 to 1.7 mL), relative bias -12.8 %; mean percentage error MPE 44.9 %; true precision TPEV 33.4 % (n = 99 aggregated data points). In neonates without shunts (n = 32): mean LVSVEV 5.0 mL, mean LVSVTTE 4.6 mL, Bland-Altman bias -0.4 mL (LOA -2.8 to 2.0 mL), relative bias -8.2 %; MPE 50.7 %; TPEV 40.9 %. In neonates with shunts (PDA and/or PFO; n = 67): mean LVSVEV 5.8 mL, mean LVSVTTE 5.0 mL, bias -0.8 mL (LOA -3.1 to 1.5 mL), relative bias -14.8 %, MPE 41.9 %, TPEV 29.3 %. Accuracy was affected by PDA and/or PFO, with a significant increase in the relative difference in LVSVEV versus LVSVTTE: Subjects without shunts -2.9 % (n = 91), PFO alone -9.6 % (n = 125), PDA alone -14.0 % (n = 12), and PDA and PFO -18.5 % (n = 63). Physiological shunts (PDA and/or PFO) in neonates affect measurement accuracy and cause overestimation of LVSVEV compared with LVSVTTE.
