Definition: Given a passage with a question and an answer to that question, classify if the answer actually answers the question into 'yes' or 'no'. Output 'yes' if the answer answers the question and output 'no' if the answer does not answer the question.
Input: Question: Is transesophageal Echocardiographic Measurement of Cardiac Index by the Prosthetic Mitral Valve Method Similar to the Continuous Thermodilution Method Via a Pulmonary Artery Catheter?
Answer: A relatively weak correlation and lack of agreement between values of CI(PAC) and CI(MV) were observed in patients undergoing double-valve replacement. Therefore, transesophageal echocardiography might not be interchangeable with PAC-TD for measuring cardiac output or cardiac index. A regression equation is needed to correct the probable value of CI(PAC). CI(MV) might be useful as a quantitative or semi-quantitative cardiac output measurement.
Output:
no
