In this video our Senior Clinical Application Specialist guides through hemodynamic parameters of a patient with cardiogenic shock and indicates potential therapy options.
The PiCCO Technology is indicated in patients who present with unstable hemodynamics and unclear volume status and in situations of therapeutic conflict. These situations are usually present in: Septic shock; Cardiogenic shock; Traumatic shock; ARDS; Severe burn injuries; Pancreatitis; High risk surgical procedures
Cardiac power index (CPI)
CPI represents the power of left ventricular cardiac output in watts. It is the product of pressure (MAP) and flow (CO). In clinical studies it has been found to be the strongest independent predictor of hospital mortality in cardiogenic shock patients.1,2

Medical benefits
Monitoring does not lower patient mortality or morbidity. Per se, however, it provides valuable information which should be used to set up a treatment plan and apply goaldirected therapy to the patient as early as possible
