“…Due to its speed and real-time information, hemodynamic monitoring is currently a popular and reliable technique for all kinds of shock detection in ICU patients. Various techniques, such as arterial catheter [5][6][7], central venous catheter [7], echocardiography [8][9][10][11], esophageal Doppler monitor [9], Foley catheter, gastric tonometry [12][13][14], pulmonary artery catheter [6,15,16], pulse oximetry [17,18], and DOCT (Doppler Optical Coherence Tomography) [19] are used for shock monitoring. Each has its own merits and demerits.…”
