Why the study?
Does the finger cuff method provide accurate cardiac output and blood pressure measurements interchangeable with invasive devices?
Does the finger cuff method provide accurate cardiac output and blood pressure measurements interchangeable with invasive devices?
The finger cuff method cannot clinically replace invasive devices for measuring cardiac output and blood pressure.
Caution against replacing invasive monitoring; leaves open need for refined noninvasive validation in critical care.
The finger cuff method provides a reasonable estimate of CO and blood pressure, which does not meet the criteria for clinical interchangeability with the currently used invasive devices.
