Lithium dilution cardiac output measurement

Abstract

The overall agreement between the two methods was good. The variability of the thermodilution measurements was greater than that of the lithium dilution measurements. The lithium dilution method is at least as accurate as bolus thermodilution and, since pulmonary artery catheterization is not needed, it has the advantages of being safe and quick to perform.
