  • Description: In a previous report from this laboratory, 1 it was shown that the stroke volume of the heart may be calculated for normal subjects by means of empirical equations, utilizing data obtained from optical records of arterial pressure, pulse wave velocity, and shape of the pulse, together with assumed volumes for the larger arteries. Estimates of cardiac output which corresponded closely with those obtained by the acetylene method were obtained on subjects of varying size and age and in the presence of physiologic variations in the cardiovascular system induced by meals, 2 hot and cold baths, 3 and change of position. 4 The present report is concerned with the estimation of cardiac output by this method on subjects with disease of the cardiovascular system other than aortic insufficiency. There is an obvious need for a method by which the cardiac output may be ascertained with safety and accuracy on very ill patients. Gasometric methods are often not usable in such cases.
