1. A hemodynamic monitor for a subject comprising:
(a) a processor comprising software arranged to continuously analyze and process at least one of a blood pressure, arterial volume, or a plethysmographic signal obtained from the subject in order to derive a plurality of complementary parameters throughout the monitoring of the subject; and (b) a display, wherein the processor is configured to cause the display to display images representing the derived plurality of complementary parameters, wherein the images comprise:
at least one image representing graphically at least one stress related hemodynamic parameter plotted against time to provide an early or immediate indication of a change in the hemodynamic status, thereby indicating a requirement for an intervention, wherein the at least one stress related hemodynamic parameter is selected from mean arterial pressure, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance, and any of these parameters indexed to take account of the body surface area of the subject; andat least one image representing graphically at least one fluid responsiveness parameter plotted against time to provide an indication of hydration level and associated ventricular pre-load status of the subject, wherein the at least one fluid responsiveness parameter is selected from stroke volume variation (SVV), pulse pressure variation (PPV), wherein the controller is configured to derive the percentage variation around a rolling mean value for stroke volume (SV) or pulse pressure (PP) on a continuous beat-to-beat basis, wherein the processor is configured to cause the display to display the at least one image representing graphically at least one stress related hemodynamic parameter in the form of at least one image representing current changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter plotted against time in combination with at least one image representing longer term changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter plotted against time, wherein the at least one image displaying current changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter comprises an expanded view of a portion of the image representing longer term changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter, thus facilitating monitoring of current changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter whilst simultaneously allowing monitoring of longer term changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter, the at least one image displaying current changes in the stress related hemodynamic parameter and the at least one image representing longer term changes being simultaneously displayed in a spatially separate manner to ensure they can be viewed simultaneously without requiring input of a user, and wherein the processor is configured to cause the display to display: at least one image representing the percentage variation around the rolling mean value for stroke volume (SV) or pulse pressure (PP) plotted against time on a continuous beat-to-beat basis to indicate current changes in the at least one fluid responsiveness parameter, and the at least one image representing graphically the at least one fluid responsiveness parameter in the form of at least one image representing longer term changes in the fluid responsiveness parameter plotted against time, thus facilitating monitoring of current changes in the at least one fluid responsiveness parameter whilst simultaneously allowing monitoring of longer term changes in the at least one fluid responsiveness parameter, the at least one image representing the percentage variation and the at least one image representing longer term changes in the fluid responsiveness parameter being simultaneously displayed in a spatially separate manner to ensure they can be viewed simultaneously without requiring input of a user. |
