In this lesson we are taking a look at a method for calculating cardiac output for our patients without knowing their stroke volume. This method was discovered in 1870 but allows us to get a pretty accurate measure of their cardiac output just knowing their oxygen consumption, arterial oxygen concentration, and venous oxygen concentration. Then using the Fick Principle we can plug all these values in and determine the CO. There are some pitfalls that come with this which are discussed in this lesson as well.
