The Chinese literal translation of Impedance Cardiography should be impedance cardiography. ICG, referred to as ICG, is a non-invasive measurement method that obtains hemodynamic data by measuring blood flow instead of measuring blood pressure. The principle is to use TEB technology (thoracic bioelectrical impedance technology) to calculate cardiac output and other hemodynamic values ??based on the changes in thoracic impedance produced when the heart ejects blood.
The method of non-invasive cardiac output testing blood flow data greatly reduces the trouble caused by traditional invasive measurement methods. Its advantages include:
1. It can quickly provide hemodynamic data for clinical diagnosis;
2. Continuously monitor hemodynamic data to facilitate medical staff to understand the patient's response to treatment. ;
3. No risk of traumatic infection;
4. Reduce patient pain;
5. Simple and easy to use;
6 . The operator does not need very professional knowledge;
7. When the patient is transferred from the ICU to the intermediate care area, ICG is an ideal way to obtain hemodynamic data.
