Systemic Arterial Pressure

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Advanced Hemodynamic Monitoring: Basics and New Horizons

Abstract

In this chapter, practical aspects of systemic arterial blood pressure measurement and monitoring are discussed in the evolutional context. The oscillometric method of non-invasive blood pressure monitoring, invasive direct monitoring via an intra-arterial catheter and the vascular unloading (volume clamp) technique of continuous non-invasive arterial pressure monitoring are described with special attention to the sources and mechanisms of errors, artifacts, pitfalls, and adverse events. Special attention is also paid to the modern strategy of systemic arterial pressure management in anesthesiology and intensive care, based on the real-time monitoring data and optimal pressure targeting in relation to the patient’s individual baseline blood pressure level.
