Implication

Pulmonary blood volume assessment should not yet alter management; leaves open its role in stroke volume regulation pending prospective validation.

Structured PICO

P
Population
19 patients
I
Intervention
Measurement of pulmonary blood volume using a dye-dilution method and simultaneous bilateral cardiac catheterization
O
Outcome
Pulmonary blood volumesurrogate

The study demonstrates that pulmonary blood volume is smaller than previously estimated and correlates with stroke volume, suggesting the pulmonary vascular bed contributes to cardiac output regulation.
