Stroke Volume & Cardiac Output Measurement on POCUS
Accurately measure LVOT diameter:
1. Obtain PLAX 
2. Zoom to

POCUS - Measuring Cardiac Output
1) Calculate LVOT Area
2) Calculate LVOT VTI
3) Calculate Cardiac Output

SV = (LVOT
Area 2) Calculate LVOT ... Output SV = (LVOT ... Area) x (LVOT VTI ... ) CO = (LVOT Area ... ) x (LVOT VTI) X
