How can you use “itbv” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Both EVLW and ITBV are measured using double-indicator dilution and the COLD Z-021 system (Pulsion Medical Systems, Munich, Germany) which requires the insertion of a catheter into the femoral artery through a 4.5 F sheath.
This new technique was used to assess the influence upon pedal cutaneous perfusion of the insertion of a femoral artery catheter for the purpose of measuring ITBV, EVLW and cardiac output (CO) using the Pulsion COLD system.
Following insertion of a femoral artery catheter prior to the measurement of EVLW and ITBV using double-indicator dilution, peripheral perfusion has usually been assessed by regular clinical examination for capillary return, warmth, presence of pedal pulses and measurement of maximum calf occlusion pressures.
Intrathoracic blood volume (ITBV) comprises the left and right heart blood volumes and the pulmonary blood volume, and has been shown to be a better indicator of cardiac filling than the pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) [ 2].
