Treatment and study plan

Cardiac contractility assessments with Kino-cardiograph

Device

Cardiac contractility will be assessed with Kino-cardiograph device. Echocardiography will also be used for the experimental arm

Cardiac assessment repeatability with Kino-cardiograph

Device

Cardiac contractility will be assessed with Kino-cardiograph device only, at different times of the day to assess the repeatability of the measures.

Primary outcomes

  1. HK reproducibility validation

    Time frame: day 1

    Validate the reproducibility of HK measurements in a clinical environment.

  2. Cardiac contractility tracking with HK

    Time frame: day 1

    Proof that the HK technology can track physiological cardiac changes while comparing with gold standard echocardiography and inducing a cardiac contractility change with dobutamine infusion.
