Özet

Aim: One of the non-invasive methods of monitoring changes in cardiovascular haemodynamics is the measurement of transthoracic impedance (TTI). The most important features of this method are that it does not require catheterisation, it carries no risk of complications and it is both cost-effective and easily applicable.
