AB  - We assessed the hypothesis that non-invasive measurement of stroke volume index 
      can replace invasive measurements in patients with chronic heart failure. 
      Non-invasive impedance cardiography (ICG) measurements together with invasive 
      hemodynamic thermodilution (TD) measurements were performed in 13 patients with 
      severe chronic heart failure (NYHA III-IV). Agreement between ICG and TD 
      regarding stroke volume index was poor. Correlation between non-invasive and 
      invasive hemodynamic measurements was low (r=0.29). In conclusion, non-invasive 
      measurements of stroke volume index using impedance cardiography did not result 
      in sufficient agreement with invasive thermodilution measurements in this study 
      with patients suffering from severe chronic heart failure.
