Accuracy of non-invasive measurement of cardiac output using electrical cardiometry in preterm infants during the transitional period: A comparison with transthoracic Doppler echocardiography
• The present data report a satisfactory accuracy of electrical velocimetry for CO assessment, with low bias and mean percentage error when compared to echocardiographic CO measurements. • Inotropic treatment with dobutamine and a hemodynamically significant duct may be associated with a slight but significant overestimation of CO measurements by electrical velocimetry.
