Strong agreement in healthy volunteers supports method validation; leaves open accuracy and utility in clinical populations.
Does noninvasive cardiac output measurement by arterial pulse analysis accurately compare with inert gas rebreathing in healthy male volunteers?
Noninvasive cardiac output measurement by arterial pulse analysis using Finapres correlates strongly with inert gas rebreathing in healthy volunteers.
Stok et al. (1993) studied this question.
