Non-invasive or arterial pressure monitoring in PHEM?

This blog post reviews a study comparing non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) and invasive blood pressure (IBP) monitoring in pre-hospital critical care. Using a retrospective cohort design, the study found that NIBP measurements are often inaccurate in patients with haemodynamic instability, particularly in hypotensive and hypertensive states. The findings suggest that direct arterial pressure monitoring should be considered for critically ill patients in PHEM. #FOAMed @stemlyns
