Cardiac output estimated noninvasively from oxygen uptake during
exercise. J. Appl. Physiol. 82(3):
908-912, 1997.
Because gas-exchange measurements during
cardiopulmonary exercise testing allow noninvasive measurement of
oxygen uptake (
O2), which
is equal to cardiac output (CO) × arteriovenous oxygen
content difference [C(a-vDO2)],
CO and stroke volume could theoretically be estimated if the
C(a-vDO2)
increased in a predictable fashion as a function of %maximum
O2
(
O2 max) during
exercise. To investigate the behavior of
C(a-vDO2)
during progressively increasing ramp pattern cycle ergometry exercise,
5 healthy subjects performed 10 studies to exhaustion while arterial
and mixed venous blood were sampled. Samples were analyzed for
blood gases (pH, PCO2,
PO2) and oxyhemoglobin and hemoglobin
concentration with a CO-oximeter. The
C(a-vDO2)
(ml/100 ml) could be estimated with a linear regression [C(a-vDO2) = 5.72 + 0.105 × %
O2 max;
r = 0.94]. The CO estimated from
the C(a-vDO2)
by using the above linear regression was well correlated with
the CO determined by the direct Fick method
(r = 0.96). The coefficient of
variation of the estimated CO was small (7-9%) between the lactic
acidosis threshold and peak
O2. The behavior
of C(a-vDO2),
as related to peak
O2, was similar regardless of cardiac function compared with similar measurements from
studies in the literature performed in normal and congestive heart
failure patients. In summary, CO and stroke volume can be estimated
during progressive work rate exercise testing from measured
O2 (in normal subjects and
patients with congestive heart failure), and the resultant linear
regression equation provides a good estimate of
C(a-vDO2).
