Low Cardiac Output Syndrome (LCOS) is a common complication of congenital heart disease corrective cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. Providing clinicians with realtime assessment of LCOS will facilitate early detection for implementation of more timely and effective interventions to reduce fatalities and improve infant outcomes. We demonstrate the realtime capture of relative temperature changes via an optical and thermographic imaging-based system that serve as an accurate measure of dynamic changes in peripheral blood perfusion. The results of this study show promise for the application of a realtime noninvasive optical and thermographic imaging-based system for LCOS detection.
