1. A device for determining the index of a heart and/or vessel function, the device comprising:

  • an impedance catheter comprising a patch, the patch comprising a first excitation electrode, a second excitation electrode, a first detection electrode, and a second detection electrode; and

    a parallel conductance reader in connection with the catheter, the parallel conductance reader operable to detect parallel conductance from the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode;

    whereby an assessment of the index of a heart and/or vessel function may be determined based upon the conductance detected from the first detection electrode and the second detection electrode.
