Development of a continuous cardiac output sensor

A continuous cardiac output monitoring system was developed in the laboratory to allow in vivo cardiac output measurements. It comprises a blood velocity sensing module and a blood vessel cross-sectional area measurement module. The velocity sensing probe consists of two optical fibres sleeved in a...
