Figure 3

Eighty-eight paired measurements of cardiac output (CO) variations between two time-points obtained simultaneously using thermodilution (TH) with a pulmonary artery catheter and oesophageal Doppler (ED). Ideal agreement is represented by a horizontal line. Contradictory information with the two techniques was observed in only three cases [10]. The open boxes and vertical bars indicate mean and standard deviation, respectively.
