Determination of total blood volume by indicator dilution: a comparison of mean transit time and mass conservation principle

Abstract: Both methods underestimate blood volume by about the same extent compared with BVEB, probably because slowly perfused compartments are not detected during the short measurement period of 4 min. In the case of the transit time approach, rather short transit times result and in the case of the mass conservation principle, back-extra-polation yields rather high plasma concentrations of ICG at the time of injection. Accordingly, the two methods seem to be equivalent for measuring blood volume rapidly, although the… Show more

“…Since the ICG is continuously being eliminated by the liver, it is necessary to identify from the clearance curve the point in time when the ICG is fully mixed with blood but not yet eliminated by the liver. It has previously been suggested when using arterial ICG monitoring that a line can be backextrapolated from the exponentially decaying part of the clearance curve to either the time of injection or the mean transit time (21,22) and the corresponding ICG concentration is regarded as the initial fully circulated ICG concentration, i.e. C 0 ICG,bl .…”

“…The MTT parameter depends to a large extent on the tail end of the transit time distribution and less on the location of the peak of the highly skewed transit time distribution. The high degree of distribution skewness is well recognized in cardiovascular research in dye dilution curves used in blood flow measurements (Fonseca-Costa & Zin 1979; von Spiegeland & Hoeft 1998; Picker et al 2001). …”

“…The anaesthetised dogs were allowed to breathe spontaneously. Blood volumes were measured using the dye dilution technique: PBV was measured as the volume of blood between the pulmonary and aortic valve, and Vd circ by two-compartmental curve fitting [1,2]. The PBV/Vd circ ratio was used as a measure of blood volume distribution.…”
