AbstractThe number of devices available to monitor the haemodynamic status of patients is increasing. Practitioners need to be aware of the non-invasive and invasive methods available in order to care for their patients safely and effectively. This article reviews a number of noninvasive measurements of haemodynamic function, in addition to invasive methods such as arterial blood pressure, central venous pressure and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring. It is argued that using these methods in combination provides a comprehensive haemodynamic assessment.

Central Venous Pressure Monitoring

Measuring and documenting accurate data from pulmonary artery and central venous pressure catheters is an important responsibility of critical care nurses. The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses Practice Alert titled Pulmonary Artery/Central Venous Pressure Monitoring in Adults provides evidence-based standards against which nurses can compare their practice related to obtaining valid hemodynamic data. Identifying and acting on improvement opportunities is also a nursing responsibility and helps to ensure that patients with pulmonary artery or central venous pressure catheters receive high-quality care. This article reviews various strategies to compare nursing practice to the Pulmonary Artery/Central Venous Pressure Monitoring in Adults Practice Alert and to close identified gaps in clinical practice.
