Abstract Introduction The reliability of autocalibrated pressure waveform FloTrac-Vigileo? (FTV) manipulation. In contrast, FTV cardiac output paralleled changes in arterial blood pressure; i.e. increased significantly if blood pressure was raised and decreased upon return to baseline levels. Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and FTV cardiac output were closely correlated (r = 0.63 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.49 - 0.74), P 0.0001) while no correlation between MAP and IPATD cardiac output was observed. Bland- analysis by the system for the determination of cardiac output in comparison with intermittent pulmonary arterial thermodilution (IPATD) is controversial. The present prospective com
