Arterial pressure-based stroke volume and functional hemodynamic monitoring.
Arterial pressure-based methods are less-invasive methods used to measure stroke volume and to predict fluid responsiveness. An understanding of the assumptions of the measurements and clinical factors that affect their accuracy and ability to predict fluid responsiveness is imperative when deciding when and how to use these new technologies. Frequently asked questions about these technologies and the data provided are addressed.
