Overview
Monitoring of haemodynamics and oxygen transport in anaesthesia, postoperative care and intensive medicine may revealdisturbances of circulation and tissue oxygenation. It should enable fast, effective and rational therapy of monitoreddisorders.Since the 1970s, physicians can monitor and evaluate haemodynamics and oxygen transport in different critical situationsusing pulmonary artery catheter. In the last three decades, the development of innovative medical technologies permittedtransition from more invasive to less invasive methods and from a static to a dynamic assessment of clinical status in realtime.In a review article, authors comment on the most common invasive, less invasive and non invasive methods of haemodynamicmonitoring. Their suitability and limitations are discussed.
