Beware the Black Box - Understanding your cardiac output monitor and when not to trust it!

Until very recently a Consultant Intensive Care Medicine and Anaesthesia at Ealing Hospital, London. My 41 year career has taken me from Bart’s in London to: Glasgow, Paris, Geneva, Seattle and back to London. My medical interests have included ITU data management, infectious diseases in ITU, understanding of physiology as applied at the bedside but most of all teaching.
