What is LiDCO used for?
LiDCO is a supplier of non-invasive and minimally invasive hemodynamic equipment used to monitor the amount of blood flowing around the body and ensure that vital organs are adequately oxygenated.
How does LiDCO measure cardiac output?
The LiDCOplus calculates cardiac output continuously by analysis of the arterial blood pressure trace following calibration with the absolute LiDCO cardiac output value.
How does LiDCO rapid work?
The LiDCOrapid monitor analyses the blood pressure waveform to provide more information in high-risk surgical and critically ill patients to help with fluid and drug management. The LiDCOrapid uses the PulseCO™ algorithm which converts blood pressure to its constituent parts of flow (CO, SV) and resistance (SVR).
What is nCO LiDCO?
nCO = scaled cardiac output (i.e nSV * HR) Dynamic Preload Parameters Window. Evidence shows that stroke volume variation >10-15% may indicate fluid responsiveness.
What is normal Svri?
Normal Hemodynamic Parameters
| Parameter | Equation | Normal Range |
|---|---|---|
| Systemic Vascular Resistance Index (SVRI) | 80 x (MAP – RAP)/CI | 1970 – 2390 dynes · sec/cm5/m2 |
| Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR) | 80 x (MPAP – PAWP)/CO | <250 dynes · sec/cm5 |
| Pulmonary Vascular Resistance Index (PVRI) | 80 x (MPAP – PAWP)/CI | 255 – 285 dynes · sec/cm5/m2 |
What is invasive monitoring?
Invasive blood pressure monitoring: Invasive (intra-arterial) blood pressure (IBP) monitoring is a commonly used technique in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and is also often used in the operating theatre. This technique involves direct measurement of arterial pressure by inserting a cannula needle in a suitable artery.
How do you use LiDCO?
LiDCO Minimally Invasive Setup Guide Using an Existing Arterial Line
- Step 1: Power on the LiDCO monitor. • Connect the power supply (optional)
- Step 2: Connect the LiDCO to the vital signs monitor. • Plug the USB connector into the LiDCO.
- Step 3: Select Rapid. • Insert a valid LiDCO Smartcard.
- Step 4: Enter patient details.
Is LiDCO invasive?
100% Non-invasive.
How is Svri calculated?
SVRI is calculated as 80*(MAP-CVP)/CI, where CI is cardiac index [5]; and the formula equals 80*(MAP-CVP)/(CO/BSA), where BSA is body surface area. This formula may also be presented as SVRI=SVR*BSA, and the normal values of SVRI range from 1900 to 2400 dynes s m2/cm5 [2], [3], [5].
