Does third-generation FloTrac software improve accuracy and precision of cardiac output monitoring compared to second-generation software in patients with sepsis?
The third-generation FloTrac software improves the accuracy of arterial pressure-based cardiac output monitoring in septic patients.
In patients with sepsis, the third-generation FloTrac software is more accurate, as precise, and less influenced by TSVR than the second-generation software.
Backer et al. (2010) studied this question.
