title: [Monitoring in surgery and resuscitation: current state, problems, and trends].
abstract: General problems of medical monitoring are discussed using monitoring in anesthesiology and resuscitation as an example. The current state of this important problem of biomedical engineering and perspectives of its further development based on sophisticated medical methods of measurement of vitally important parameters of patient are analyzed. The main emphasis was placed on the problems of collaboration between physicians and engineers in the development of monitoring systems and optimal information support of physicians during the use of monitoring systems in surgery and resuscitation. Special attention was devoted to facilitation of working conditions of physician with due regard to patient safety. The problems of appearance of monitoring errors, their origin, and approaches to their minimization are also discussed.
