Abstract
The invention relates to a system for determining a cardiovascular parameter in a patient, wherein the system is adapted to work in conjunction with an extracorporeal blood treatment device (ECBTD) connectable to a patient's vascular system, wherein the ECBTD comprises a first circuit, the system comprising: a liquid-filled, second circuit thermally connected to the first circuit of the ECBTD via a heat exchanger, temperature changing means for generating a temperature change in the second circuit, temperature sensors TS2up and TS2down arranged in the second circuit upstream and downstream of the heat exchanger, respectively. A computer system connected to the temperature sensors and the temperature changing means is adapted to induce a temperature bolus within the first circuit of the ECBTD via the temperature changing means. From the individual temperature recorded as a function of time, temperature curves T2up(t) and T2down(t) are derived and evaluated.
