We compared the NICaS data in double-check with a pediatric algorithm using a CardioQ ultrasonograph cardiac evaluation device (CardioQ, Deltex medical; terminus RD, Chichester P019 8TX; United Kingdom).

Soon after, we studied 41 neonatal and pediatric patients who had undergone cardiac surgery, urologic surgery, orthopedic surgery, and general surgery, and we compared the two systems

The statistical and clinical were absolutely satisfactory and the algorithm has been validated.
