Figure 1

Correlation of femoral and jugular transpulmonary thermodilution variables. Scatter plot showing the correlation of femoral and jugular global end-diastolic volume index (rm = 0.88; P < 0.001) (a), femoral and jugular extra-vascular lung water index (rm = 0.93; P < 0.001) (b), and femoral and jugular cardiac index (rm = 0.95; P < 0.001) (c). GEDVIjug, jugular global end-diastolic volume index (mL/m2); GEDVIfem, femoral global end-diastolic volume index (mL/m2); EVLWIjug, jugular extra-vascular lung water index (mL/kg); EVLWIfem, femoral extra-vascular lung water index (mL/kg); CIjug, jugular cardiac index (L/min/m2); CIfem, femoral cardiac index (L/min/m2).
