Abstract

One of the most important goals of caring for critically ill patients is maintenance of adequate organ perfusion; as such, hemodynamic monitoring has become a cornerstone of critical care medicine. The ability to rapidly and accurately obtain and interpret hemodynamic parameters, as well as to manipulate these parameters according to clinical changes, remains a significant part of the intensivist’s practice. The primary parameters of interest to the intensivist are the physiologic markers of preload, afterload, and contractility as well as well as the balance between oxygen delivery (DO2) and utilization. Today the intensivist has a multitude of monitors to assist him in the hemodynamic monitoring of the patient. The pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) remains a popular method for obtaining such important hemodynamic information [1–3]. Some controversy regarding the risks and benefits of PAC use [2, 4] has caused the intensivist to look to other techniques of hemodynamic monitoring [1, 5].
