title: [Monitoring during secondary transportation].
abstract: Stabilization of the vital functions of critical patients prior to transport is mandatory even in urgent interhospital transfers. Although distances may be short, hasty transport is potentially harmful for the patient. The monitoring systems available for emergency care today facilitate mobile intensive care medicine. However, there are still technical limitations which may compromise the continuous invasive monitoring already installed before transport. Special care is needed in developing combinations of monitoring and treatment systems, especially for the transport of critically ill and injured patients.
