How can you use “itbv” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
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].
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.
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.
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.
