Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical usefulness of measuring the heart's pumping ability by measuring the Peripheral Pulse Volume (PPV).

Conditions

  • Peripheral Vascular Response

Interventions

DEVICE

Pulse Volume Measurement

patients will wear a newly designed calf monitor that will be hooked up to a computer that will monitor leg peripheral pulse volumes which will then be correlated to pressures obtained with Swan Ganz monitoring. The calf monitor is gut two bands with sensors that are wrapped around the ankle and below the knww
