Pulmonary capillary blood flow Qc was measured in resting adult subjects by a capacitancel nitrous-oxide-uptake method that requires little subject training and minimises psychological influences while allowing Qc determinations at regular intervals with no discomfort to the patient.

Three models which describe the relationship between cardiac output and the uptake of volatile anaesthetic agents, based on the Fick equation, are developed and it is found that the single-breath model was most accurate when the inspired concentration was large, while the rebreathing model was better with smaller inspired concentrations.

In anesthetized dogs and critically ill patients with normal ventricular wall motion, changes in TCG derived ventricular volume waveform amplitudes agreed well with changes of thermodilution estimates of stroke volume during atrial pacing and fluid loading in the dogs on the one hand and with application of extrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure in patients on the other hand.
