Abstract:
Based on a review of the literature, hemodynamic signs and measurements in severe preeclampsia are described. Advantages and disadvantages of various hemodynamic methods and resulting indications for therapy are discussed. We found that in respect of hemodynamic monitoring in severe preeclampsia there are no indications for central venous pressure and conclude that at present there is no alternative to right heart catheterization (Swan-Ganz catheter).
