A system and method is disclosed for measuring cardiac output. A closed fluid circuit is created between a patient's arterial cannula and venous cannula. A pump regulates flow through the closed fluid circuit. The closed fluid circuit includes at least one port for injection of an indicator. At least one sensor is attached to the closed fluid circuit for taking readings of a blood parameter after the indicator has flowed through the patients system at least once.

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé qui permettent de mesurer un débit cardiaque. Un circuit fluidique fermé est créé entre une canule artérielle et une canule veineuse d'un patient. Une pompe régule le débit à l'intérieur du circuit fluidique fermé. Le circuit fluidique fermé comprend au moins un orifice servant à l'injection d'un indicateur. Au moins un capteur est associé au circuit fluidique fermé pour lire un paramètre sanguin après que l'indicateur se soit écoulé au moins une fois à travers le système du patient.
