Abstract
This paper describes impedance technique and device types, discusses hemodynamic data parameters that are available, discusses the differences between impedance cardiography and data that are derived from invasive pulmonary artery catheters, and explains how nurses can apply bioimpedance cardiography in a variety of patient populations.
