  • Title: Hemodynamic monitoring modalities in pediatric cardiac surgical patients.
    Author: Elixson EM.
    Journal: Crit Care Nurs Clin North Am; 1989 Jun; 1(2):263-73. PubMed ID: 2684230.
    Abstract:
    Transthoracic monitoring lines yield vital information in the care of the pediatric postoperative cardiovascular surgical patient. It is the critical care nurse, in the holistic care of the patient, who integrates this data into the daily plan of care. Invasive monitoring carries risks; therefore, guidelines for care must be followed. The care of these critically ill infants requires a multifactoral approach. Hemodynamic monitoring is one of many avenues that we follow in the intensive care unit.
