Excerpt

Invasive arterial pressure monitoring is a standard practice in critically ill patients [1] since it allows accurate and beat to beat assessment of mean arterial pressure (MAP), and also delivers valuable information about cardiac function, heart–lung interactions, the arterial system and valvular diseases [2]. Although several guidelines recommend a MAP target during initial hermodynamic resuscitation [3], focusing only on MAP is an oversimplification, since patients with similar values may have considerable differences in underlying pathophysiological conditions [4]. Therefore, all the components derived from arterial pressure monitoring should be considered for diagnostic or therapeutic decisions when facing an acute circulatory dysfunction, as will be addressed in this article. …
