Summary

The specific aim of this study is to assess whether a device approved by the FDA to measure pulse oximetry can accurately estimate cardiac output.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Pulmonary Artery Catheter (PAC)

A catheter is inserted into the pulmonary artery, through the internal jugular vein; cardiac output is indicated by the speed that a temperature gradient dissipates.

DEVICE

Endotracheal Cardiac Output Monitor (ECOM)

An FDA-approved medical device is inserted into the patient's throat; cardiac output is calculated by measuring how electricity moves through the chest.

DEVICE

Estimated Continuous Cardiac Output (esCCO)

Sensors are placed on the arm, finger and leg to calculate Pulse Wave Transit Time (PWTT); the time it takes for the pulse of the heartbeat to travel through the body.
