Population

202 articles published between 1997 and 2009 comparing methods of continuous cardiac output measurement

Intervention

Statistical methods for assessing trending ability of continuous cardiac output monitors (including pulse contour, Doppler, bioimpedance, and transpulmonary or continuous thermodilution)

Outcome

Identification of an acceptable statistical method for analyzing trending ability

The 4-quadrant plot with exclusion zones and concordance analysis is the consensus method for assessing the trending ability of continuous cardiac output monitors, and a novel polar plot method is proposed.

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

Supports 4-quadrant concordance analysis for cardiac output trending studies; leaves open polar plot validation in prospective research.
