Abstract

A thermodilution catheter has electrodes in electrical contact with the blood flowing adjacent to the catheter. A potential difference applied to the electrodes causes electrical current to flow in the volume of blood in the region of the electrodes, thereby creating a bolus of blood at elevated temperature suitable for measurement of blood flow by the thermodilution principle.
