Abstract

Public Health Relevance

The amount of blood flow through the heart is an important marker of health, especially in critically ill patients or for those undergoing heart surgeries. In this project, a novel method for measuring blood flow in the heart will be developed and tested using principles in electrochemistry. This new method has the potential to provide significantly more reliable measurements than current standard of care.
