Abstract:
Circulatory failure in critically ill children is a common pathophysiological state.Timely identification of its causes,hemodynamic monitoring and appropriate intervention are essential to block the process of circulatory failure and reduce mortality.In this review,some of the most important hemodynamic parameters that can be obtained by the bedside echocardiography were described and some important issues during the application of bedside echocardiography were discussed.
