Awesome Emergency Medicine and Critical Care (AEMCC)


This week's AEMCC is about hemodynamics.  The first and second years are all into it at this point.  I believe the first year class just had a small group session on Pulmonary Arterial Catheters, invasive pressure monitoring, and looking at all of the hemodynamic parameters.  Here are some great articles, podcasts, blogs and more...


ARTICLES IN THE LITERATURE


1. The original article on Pulmonary Arterial Catheters: 


2. The end of PA catheter use?  Outcomes based evidence:


3. Utility of monitoring central venous pressure:
