Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a non-invasive technology measuring total electrical conductivity of the thorax and its changes in time to process continuously a number of cardiodynamic parameters, such as stroke volume (SV), heart rate (HR), cardiac output (CO), ventricular ejection time (VET), pre-ejection period and used to detect the ...

In order to diagnose CVDs, there are a range of detection methods, among them, the impedance cardiography technique (ICG). It is a non-invasive and low-cost method. In this paper, we highlight recent advances and developments of the CDVs diagnosis mainly by the ICG method.

Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a non-invasive examination method for determining the stroke volume and for haemodynamic monitoring.

2017年5月4日 · Cardiac impedance is a measurement of the mechanical activation of the heart. By recording cardiac impedance in conjunction with the electrical activation of the heart, the electrocardiogram (ECG), we can gain insight into sympathetic nervous system influence through measures such as Pre-Ejection Period, Stroke Volume, and Cardiac Output.

2009年4月1日 · Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a noninvasive method based on Ohm's law that determines changes in thoracic fluid content based on changes in the conductivity/resistance to propagation of an electrical impulse across the thorax.

The ICG gives us all the information we need to assess the condition of the heart and helps us to outline the best program to help your heart become strong and healthy again.

Measurement of impedance is becoming increasingly available in the clinical setting as a tool for assessing hemodynamics and volume status in patients with heart failure. The 2 major categories of impedance assessment are the band electrode method and the implanted device lead method.

Noninvasive impedance cardiography (ICG) uses changes in thoracic electrical impedance to measure thoracic fluid content, changes in the duration of cardiac ejection, and the velocity of blood flow within the aorta (6,7).

Impedance Cardiography (ICG) is a non-invasive technology that measures the total electrical conductivity of the thorax, the area between the neck and the abdomen. The test measures changes over a continuous period to record data such as heart rate, cardiac output, ventricular ejection time, and stroke volume.

This study aimed at evaluating the diagnostic and outcome prediction value of transthoracic impedance cardiography (ICG) in heart failure (HF) patients admitted for in-hospital treatment due to flare-ups of their condition. In total, 120 patients of intensive care units who were admitted due to HF flare-ups were involved to the study.
