Apr 24, 2020 · Arterial blood pressure (BP) is a fundamental cardiovascular variable, is routinely measured in perioperative and intensive care medicine, and has a significant impact on patient management. The clinical reference method for BP monitoring in high-risk surgical patients and critically ill patients is continuous invasive BP measurement using an arterial catheter. A key …

Nov 30, 2014 · Introduction Critically ill patients and patients undergoing high-risk and major surgery, are instrumented with intra-arterial catheters and invasive blood pressure is considered the “gold standard” for arterial pressure monitoring. Nonetheless, artifacts due to inappropriate dynamic response of the fluid-filled monitoring systems may lead to clinically relevant …

Mar 8, 2006 · Introduction Invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring is a common practice in intensive care units (ICUs). Accuracy of invasive blood pressure monitoring is crucial in evaluating the cardiocirculatory system and adjusting drug therapy for hemodynamic support. However, the best site for catheter insertion is controversial. Lack of definitive information in critically ill …

Apr 19, 2006 · Introduction Blood pressure measurements frequently guide management in critical care. Direct readings, commonly from a major artery, are considered to be the gold standard. Because arterial cannulation is associated with risks, alternative noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurements are routinely used. However, the accuracy of NIBP …

Sep 28, 2022 · Hemodynamic monitoring is the centerpiece of patient monitoring in acute care settings. Its effectiveness in terms of improved patient outcomes is difficult to quantify. This review focused on effectiveness of monitoring-linked resuscitation strategies from: (1) process-specific monitoring that allows for non-specific prevention of new onset cardiovascular insufficiency …

May 7, 2019 · The pressure reactivity index (PRx) is based on high-frequency moving time series Pearson correlations between ICP and slow wave fluctuations of arterial blood pressure (ABP) and is available as a software package (ICM+®, Cambridge Enterprise, University of Cambridge, UK) that is frequently used for this purpose , including in our center.

Mar 20, 2012 · The artefacts affecting arterial wave morphology may compromise recorded values of arterial blood pressure (ABP) and can lead to therapeutic errors. The aim of this study is to evaluate the errors between invasive and noninvasive arterial pressure values, the incidence of artefacts due to an inadequate dynamic response of the transducer-tubing ...

Dec 1, 2015 · For example, the combination of arterial pressure and the partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide (PetCO 2) can help differentiate between vasodilation and low CO as a cause of hypotension (PetCO 2 transiently decreases when CO decreases) and may prevent ‘reflex’ fluid administration whenever blood pressure decreases.

Apr 18, 2002 · In order to evaluate the complications and risk factors associated with peripheral arterial catheters used for haemodynamic monitoring, we reviewed the literature published from 1978 to 2001. We closely examined the three most commonly used arterial cannulation sites. The reviewed papers included a total of 19,617 radial, 3899 femoral and 1989 axillary artery …

Mar 1, 2002 · For monitoring of arterial blood pressure (ABP) during induced whole body hyperthermia (WBH) different methods have been recommended. This investigation was performed to evaluate the agreement of invasive measurements at various sites, and to compare invasive and non-invasive methods of ABP monitoring under conditions of a heat-induced …
