What is it indicated for?

The Caretaker Advanced Hemodynamic Parameters provides calibrated cardiac output/stroke volume (CO/SV), left ventricular ejection time (LVET), and heart rate variability (HRV) in adult patients to the existing Caretaker Remote Display App And Caretaker Software Library (K181196) via Pulse Decomposition Analysis ("PDA")(K211588, K163255, K151499). To provide CO/SV measurements, the Caretaker platform is to be calibrated with a thermodilution measurement, or other accurate reference determination of cardiac output, to ensure accuracy. The device is intended for use by physicians or other properly trained medical personnel in a hospital or other appropriate clinical setting.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
