The Cardiac Output (CO) can be calculated from the thoracic cardio-impedance signal from several methods, and all of them are linked to the frequency information, information that is limited by the type of filtering used before. A methodology is proposed to evaluate the effect of the commonly used methods of filtering, and an improvement of the SFLC LMSbased algorithm by the use of RLS algorithm is also tested. Performances of algorithms are then evaluated considering different types of noise such as white noise or combination of sinusoidal noises to simulate the effect of respiration and body movements.
