Abstract
Hemodynamic monitoring is required in critically ill patients presenting with circulatory shock. Besides the clinical evaluation, noninvasive technologies can be used. Guidelines on volume resuscitation and cardiogenic shock already recommend bedside ultrasound as a diagnostic tool. To differentiate the cause of circulatory shock and monitor the effects of therapies, hemodynamic monitoring is necessary. This review discusses possibilities of the different invasive and noninvasive monitoring tools with a focus on the integration of clinical and sonographic parameters.
