ABSTRACT
Invasive haemodynamic monitoring plays a pivotal role in critically ill patients. In this respect, central venous pressure is one of the most often used parameters. This review aims to provide an overview of the use of central venous pressure monitoring, the advantages and shortcomings, besides pitfalls. The integration of central venous pressure monitoring into other haemodynamic monitoring is discussed.
