Understanding the Importance of PV Catheter Calibration in Admittance and Conductance Systems

There are two technologies available for doing Pressure-Volume (PV) loop studies, admittance and conductance. Both systems call for calibration procedures that can be technically challenging or expensive to complete, driving many researchers to avoid these procedures and use estimates instead. For users of admittance technology, avoiding calibration by using estimates has now become the recommended approach by the manufacturer to arriving at volume calibrated data.
