Abstract Introduction The present study compared measurements of cardiac output by an arterial pressure-based cardiac output APCO analysis method with measurement by intermittent thermodilution cardiac output ICO via pulmonary artery catheter in a clinical setting. Methods The multicenter prospective clinical investigation enrolled patients with a clinical indication for cardiac output monitoring requiring pulmonary artery and radial artery catheters at two hospitals in the United States one hospital in France and one hospital in Belgium. In 84 patients 69 surgical patients the cardiac output was measured by analysis of the arterial pulse using APCO and was measured
