Of all the methods available for the serial determination of cardiac output, the one using Cardio-Green has proved the most suitable. Most other methods of cardiac output estimation do not lend themselves readily to many consecutive tests, with the exception perhaps of the ones using radioactive tracers. The suitability of the latter, however, depends upon the availability of highly sensitive counters so that the total dose of radioactive material injected during all these tests does not reach dangerous levels.
