What I intend to discuss

• Why to monitor?• What to monitor?• How to monitor • What is the evidence that what we

are doing actually makes a difference

3

Can’t I look at my patient and tell if they are OK?

NO! Physical Assessment is often inaccurate, slow to change and difficult

to interpret

Why to monitor?

• Respiration and circulation ..Essential for sustaining life

• Oxygen ,,,,,, the real necessity for organ function

• To gather information that will indicate whether the conditions that are required to maintain tissue perfusion are adequately maintained.

To assure the adequacy of perfusionEarly detection of inadequacy of perfusionTo titrate therapy to specific hemodynamic end pointTo differentiate among various organ system dysfunctions

Why hemodynamic monitoring?

• Preoptimization for high-risk surgery patients treated in the operating room

• EGDT (< 12 h) resuscitation in septic patients treated in the emergency department reduce morbidity, mortality, and resource use.

• The closer the resuscitation is to the insult, the greater the benefit.

• Focus of these monitoring protocols .......... to establish a mean arterial pressure > 65 mm Hg and then to increase DO2 to 600 mL/min/m2 within the first few minutes to hours of presentation.

Hemodynamic Monitoring Truth

•No monitoring device, no matter how simple or complex, invasive or non-invasive, inaccurate or precise will improve outcome•Unless coupled to a treatment, which itself improves outcome

Traditional Monitoring

Electrocardiography• HR, dysrhythmnias, HR variability

Pulse oxymetry NIBP Arterial blood pressure Central venous pressure

Pulse Oxymetry• ABSORBTION SPECTRO PHOTOMETRY

• BEER LAMBERT LAW• LAMBERT’S LAW states that when a light falls on a homogenous

substance,intensity of transmitted light decreases as the distance through the substance increase

• BEER’S LAW states that when a light is transmitted through a clear substance with a dissolved solute ,the intensity of transmitted light decreases as the concentration of the solute increases

Uses two lights of wavelengths• 660nm –deoxy Hb absorbs ten times as oxy hb• 940 nm – absorption of oxyHb is greater• Lab oximeters use 4 wavelengths to measure 4 species of haemoglobin• It =I o e –Ecd [Ecd –absorbance]

Oxygen desaturation

• Saturation is defined as is a relative measure of the amount of oxygen that is dissolved or carried in a given medium(percentage).

• Desaturation leads to Hypoxemia – a relative deficiency of O2 in arterial blood. PaO2 < 80mmHg – hypoxemia

• Oxygen saturation will not decrease until PaO2 is below 85mmHg.

• Rough guide for PaO2 between saturation of 90%-75% is,, PaO2 = SaO2 - 30.

• SaO2< than 76% is life threatening.

Esophageal doppler CO

A small probe is inserted into the esophagus of mechanically-ventilated patients, usually during anesthesia

The probe is introduced orally and advanced gently until its tip is located approximately at the mid-thoracic level, and then rotated so that it faces the descending aorta.

Esophageal doppler CO

• The tip of the probe contains a Doppler transducer which transmits an ultrasound beam (4 MHz continuous-wave or 5 MHz pulsed-wave).

• The change in frequency of this beam as it reflects off a moving object allows measurement of blood flow velocity in the descending aorta. This measurement, when combined with an estimate of the cross-sectional area of the aorta, allows calculation of hemodynamic variables including stroke volume and cardiac output.

Esophageal doppler CO,potential complications

• Operator dependency, occasional difficulties in probe placement

• Difficulty interpreting the signal during periods of arrhythmia

CO measurement from expired gas...Indirect Fick’s principle


• Continuous cardiac output•

• Principle: Differential CO2 Fick’s partial rebreathing method

• CO= VCO2/ CvCO2-CaCO2

• To estimate CvCO2 , 150 ml of dead space is added to the ventilator circuit by opening a rebreathing valve


• Cardiac output is computed on breath-by-breath measurements of CO2 elimination.

• Rebreathing measurements are made every three minutes for 35 seconds.

• Cardiac output is proportional to the change in CO2 elimination divided by the change in end tidal CO2 resulting from a brief rebreathing period.

• These measurements are accomplished and measured by the proprietary NICO Sensor, which periodically adds a rebreathing volume into the breathing circuit.

LIMITATIONS Assumption about CvCO2 Accurate only if PaCO2 >

Requires an intubated patient

No parameter to monitor intravascular volume status

THORACIC ELECTRICAL BIOIMPEDANCE

• Bioimpedance monitoring (1965) , NASA...... to estimate cardiac output non-invasively in astronauts

• Impedance ....... the resistance to alternating current• Theory of technique• The technique depends on the change in bio impedance of the

thoracic cavity during systole• The bioimpedance monitors apply a small (3 mA)

high-frequency current to the thorax and use an array of thoracic electrodes to measure the resulting potential changes to give an impedance-time or dZ/dt trace

• Cardiac output is estimated from the 0.5% variation in impedance that occurs with the cardiac cycle,

LiDCO

• Principle: Indicator dilution

• A small dose of lithium chloride (0.15 -0.30 mmol) is injected via a central or peripheral venous line; the resulting arterial lithium concentration-time curve is recorded by withdrawing blood past a lithium sensor attached to the patient’s existing arterial line.

1) A bolus of Lithium isflushed through acentral or venous line

2) A Lithium sensitive sensor, attached to aperipheral arterial line, detects the concentrationof Lithium ions in the arterial blood

4) This value is then used to calibrate the LiDCOplusto give continuous cardiac output and derivedvariables from arterial waveform analysis.L i D C O ™The LiDCOplus - Lithium Indicator Dilution

3) The Lithium indicator dilution ‘wash-out’curve on the LiDCOplus provides anaccurate absolute cardiac output value

LiDCO

Cardiac Output = (Lithium Dose x 60)/(Area x (1-PCV))

LiDCO ADVANTAGES

Provides an absolute cardiac output value Requires no additional invasive catheters to insert

into the patient Is safe – using non-toxic bolus dosages Is simple and quick to set up Is not temperature dependent

Pulse Contour analysisFloTrac

• PRINCIPLE – PCA • Flow is determined by a pressure gradient along

a vessel and the resistance to that flow (F=P/R). • The FloTrac algorithm uses a similar principle to

measure pulsatile flow by incorporating the effects of both vascular resistance and compliance through a conversion factor known as Khi

Pulse Contour analysis (Flo Trac)

• The FloTrac algorithm analyzes the pressure waveform at one hundred times per second over 20 seconds, capturing 2,000 data points for analysis.

• These data points are used along with patient demographic information to calculate the standard deviation of the arterial pressure(σAP).

LIMITATIONSPaed. PatientsCardiac shuntsARArtherosclerosisAtrial fibrillationElderly patients with altered compliance of artery

The FloTrac sensor level is continually maintained. Intra aortic balloon pump creates artificially high

diastolic pressure Non-Invasive Blood Pressure cuff on same arm as

FloTrac™ sensor may cut arterial pressure signal off intermittently when cuff is inflated.

Long, flexible femoral catheters may be more predisposed to arterial pressure artifact


ADVANTAGES

PCA method which does not require calibrationAccounts for changes in complianceAccuracy in changing hemodynamicsParameters of fluid responsiveness (SVV)

FloTrac set upAccurate Height, Weight, Sex and Age of the Patient

If patient’s BSA changes by more than 0.1 m2----------------------check and re-enter the patient’s weight. (esp… for patients with rapid changes in weight eg.renal failure/dialysis, acute severe burns, etc.

When taking sample data, ensure. . .Patient is not agitated or coughing

Radial line or femoral line waveform artifact maybe introduced through constant movement.

Ensure stable waveforms prior to taking the data samples.Other procedures deferred during sample taking (turning

patients, bathing, suctioning, etc)Patient preferably in supine position

FloTrac: Waveform fidelity The accuracy and fidelity of the FloTrac sensor is of

importance as the cardiac output is calculated from pressures measured and waveform assessment

No “T”ing of arterial lines with other devices System is free of bubbles

Pressure bag for flush is pressurized to and maintained at 300 mmHg

Accurate zero referencing and calibration Accurate leveling of FloTrac™ sensor relevant to

patient’s Phlebostatic Axis must be maintained at all times

• A good understanding of the pathophysiological underpinnings for its effective application across patient groups is required.

• Functional hemodynamic monitors are superior to conventional filling pressure.
