2. Caregivers play a valuable role in the patient’s recovery and should be considered members of the health care team as they can contribute to the patient’s well-being.

3. HEMODYNAMIC MONITORING: Hemodynamic monitoring refers to the measurement of pressure, flow, and oxygenation within the cardiovascular system. Invasive and noninvasive hemodynamic measurements are made in the ICU.

4. Complications With PA Catheters

• Infection and sepsis are serious problems associated with PA catheters.

Answer 1

1. Common problems of critical care patients are :-

- Hemodynamic imbalance

- Respiratory insufficiency

- Deterioration in LOC

- Nutritional problems

- Fluid and electrolyte imbalance

2. Caregivers play a very important role in the patients recovery and are considered part of the healthcare team as they also participate in providing care to the patients for their well being .

3. Hemodynamic monitoring is the evaluation, monitoring, and assessment of the dynamics of blood flow through the cardiovascular circuit in an individual. It is important because movement of blood determines perfusion, oxygenation, and delivery of nutrients to the body, and it is a foundation for interventions in the critical care setting.

4. Complications with PA catheter are :-

- dysrhythmia

- pneumothorax

- haemothorax

- infection

- endocarditis

- PA rupture

- pulmonary embolisation and infarction

- valvular and myocardial injury
