Abstract:
Vascular surgical patients present unique challenges for anesthesiologists, because of their medical vulnerabilities as well as their tendency for rapid intraoperative hemodynamic changes. Intraoperative monitors have been used for decades to reduce adverse outcomes, improve mortality, and create optimal surgical conditions. Understanding the indications and appropriate management of monitoring modalities is essential for optimizing patient care, and preventing harm associated with misinterpretation. We aim to review monitoring technologies used in complex vascular procedures, as well as the current guidelines, clinical trial outcomes, and basic mechanisms of each monitoring modality.
