- Abstract: Hemodynamic monitoring continuously checks hemodynamic variables for problems so that the clinician can treat them when a patient's vital signs are unstable. There are many different monitoring systems, and many new technologies were developed over the past three decades. It is challenging to understand the many monitoring system in the intensive care units, for example. However, all such monitoring systems are based on the general principle of monitoring oxygen transport to a peripheral organ. In this review, from conventional to recent principles, general concepts and paradigm shifts of hemodynamic monitoring will be discussed.
