![Page 21: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
ARTERIAL LINE DEFINITION:
It is the method of direct continuous monitoring of systemic arterial pressure by inserting a catheter into peripheral artery either in arm or in leg. The catheter is connected with a transducer with electrical signals.
21 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 22: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
PURPOSE:
The arterial line provides a way to
constantly measure a patient's blood
pressure and may be essential to the
stabilization of the patient.
Continuous measurement of arterial blood
pressure in case of open heart surgery.
22 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 23: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Arterial lines may be useful in patients
with very high or low blood pressures.
The arterial line also provides access for
frequent blood sampling.
23 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 24: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
COMPLICATIONS:
The major complications associated with
the arterial line are bleeding, infection, and
rarely, a lack of blood flow to the tissue
supplied by the artery.
24 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 25: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
NURSES ROLE / NURSING CARE
Never give any medication through an arterial
line.
Always check the pressure of the pressurized
bag and maintain a pressure of 300mm of hg.
Cover the cannula cap with adhesive tape.
Flush properly the arterial line every hour and
every time after a blood sample is drawn.
Always compress the site after removal of
arterial line for 10 min.
25 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 26: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
BEDSIDE MONITOR
A bedside monitor is a
display of major body
functions on a device
that looks like a
television screen or
computer monitor.
26 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 27: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
It is a comprehensive patient monitoring
systems that can be configured to
continuously measure and display a
number of parameters via electrodes and
sensors that are connected to the patient.
27 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 28: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
These may include the electrical activity
of the heart via an EKG, respiration rate
(breathing), blood pressure, body
temperature, cardiac output, and amount
of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the
blood.
28 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 29: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Each patient bed in an ICU has a
physiologic monitor that measure these
body activities. All monitors are
networked to a central nurses' station.
29 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 30: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
PURPOSES:
The monitor is typically used when the
doctor wants to measure functions like
the heart rate, respiratory rate, blood
pressure and temperature. In addition,
special functions such as capnography,
oximetry, electroencephalography and
pulmonary artery catheter readings are
also used in certain situations.
30 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 31: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The bedside monitor has alarms that signal
the nurse if a body function needs
attention.
31 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 32: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
NURSES ROLE:
Check properly each connection so as to
get a desired reading.
Any abnormality in a reading is signalled by
an alarm so inform doctor immediately.
32 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS

Central Venous Line or Catheter
A central venous catheter is a special IV line that is inserted into a large vein in the body. Several veins are used for central venous catheters including those located in the shoulder (subclavian vein), neck (jugular vein), and groin (femoral vein)
33 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 34: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

![Page 37: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
In some patients, a central venous
catheter may be inserted into the
elbow vein (anticubital vein) and
advanced into the subclavian vein.
37 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 38: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

PURPOSE
These special IVs are used when the
patient either does not have adequate
veins in the arms or needs special
medications and/or nutrition that cannot
be given through the smaller arm veins.
Serve as a guide of fluid balance in
critically ill patients.
Determine the function of the right side
of the heart
39 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 40: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
complication
Bleeding and infection are complications
associated with IV catheters. As previously
mentioned, collapse of a lung is a rare
complication of central venous catheters.
If this occurs, a chest tube (thoracostomy
tube) may be required to re-expand the
lung.
40 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 41: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Arterial puncture, cardiac puncture
Pneumothorax, Hemomothorax
Air emboli, Thrombosis
Cardiac temponade

![Page 42: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
NURSES ROLE
Monitor for the signs of complications.
Assess for patency of the CVP line.
Sterile dressing should be done to
prevent infection( CVP care per the
hospital protocol)
The length of the indwelling catheter
should be recorded and regularly
monitored.
42 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 43: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
ICP monitor
ICU patients who have sustained head
trauma, brain hemorrhage, brain surgery,
or conditions in which the brain may
swell might require intracranial pressure
monitoring.
43 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 44: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
PURPOSE
The purpose of ICP monitoring is to
continuously measure the pressure
surrounding the brain. If the pressure
surrounding the brain gets too high, it can
cause decreased blood flow to the brain
and potentially lead to brain damage.
44 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 45: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
The ICP monitor is usually inserted by a
neurosurgeon while the patient is in the
ICU or operating room. After using
numbing medicine (local anesthetics), the
neurosurgeon makes a skin incision and
inserts the ICP monitor into the brain
through a very small hole created in the
skull.
45 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 46: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
The ICP monitor is usually inserted in the
left or right top-front part of the brain.
Some ICP monitors can drain spinal fluid if
necessary.
46 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 47: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
complication
Potential complications associated with
ICP monitoring include infection and brain
hemorrhage, which are very infrequent.
47 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 48: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Nurses role
Optimizing cerebral tissue perfusion.
Preventing infection.
Maintaining patient airway.
Maintaining negative fluid balance.
Prevent infection( dressing)
48 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 49: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
PULSE OXIMETER
A pulse oximeter is the device that
measures and displays the oxygen arterial
saturation. The study is called pulse
oxymetry.
The pulse oximeter is a small device that
has to be in contact with the skin to detect
the oxygen saturation.
49 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 50: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
The device is usually place on the
patient's finger, earlobe, toe or nose. The
pulse oximeter gives off light that
determines the oxygen saturation of the
blood.
50 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 51: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Breathing Machine (Mechanical
Ventilator
A breathing machine
helps the patient
breathe. It is designed
to help patients who
cannot breathe
adequately on their
own. The breathing
machine does not fix
any problems of the
lungs.
51 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 52: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
It is a device that simply pushes air and
oxygen into the lungs and withdraws
carbon dioxide from the lungs. The lungs
must function in order for the breathing
machine to be effective.
52 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 53: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
PURPOSE
A breathing machine is
used whenever a
patient cannot breathe
without assistance.
Doctors, nurses and
respiratory therapists
all work to make sure
a breathing machine is
not used any longer
than necessary.
53 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 54: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
The goal when a breathing machine is
first used is to get the patient to be able
to breathe on their own, so that the
breathing machine can be removed.
54 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 55: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
complications
Patients who require breathing machine
support are at increased risk to develop
pneumonia. Occasionally, patients may
develop a collapsed lung. Both of these
complications require treatment
55 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 56: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)

INFUSION PUMP
An intravenous (IV) infusion pump is a
machine that carefully controls the rate at
which IV fluids and/or IV medications are
given.
58 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 59: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
PURPOSE
Under some circumstances, the rate at
which IV fluids and/or IV medications are
given needs to be closely controlled.
59 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 60: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
These pumps are very reliable. Mechanical
problems are possible, but very rare. If the
IV infusion pump does not work correctly,
an alarm will sound.

NURSES ROLE
Using aseptic technique and universal
precautions, iv infusion should be set.
Set the flow rate as prescribed calculating
the amount of fluid.
Observe for the signs of infiltration or
other complications such as
thrombophlebitis. Fluid or electrolyte
overload and embolism before
administration.

Resuscitation Cart (Crash Cart)
The resuscitation cart
contains all of the
equipment and
medications needed
for advanced life
support and CPR
(cardiopulmonary
resuscitation).
62 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 63: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
purpose
This emergency equipment is used only if
the patient's heart or lungs stop working.
The cart is brought to the patient's
bedside when the patient's heart or lungs
are failing or have failed.
63 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 64: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
NURSES ROLE
Keep the resuscitation cart ready all the
time.
Check the devices and ensure that the
devices are kept in charging.
Check for the emergency (life saving)
medication for their expiry date.
64 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 65: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
DEFIBRILLATOR
A defibrillator is a device that is designed
to pass electrical current through a
patient’s heart. The passing of electrical
current through the heart is called
defibrillation. A defibrillation is done
through pads placed on the patient’s chest.
65 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 66: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
purpose
A defibrillation is used to restore a
patient’s heart rhythm to normal.
Abnormal heart rhythms may be treated
with medications while other rhythms
need to be treated with defibrillation.
66 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 67: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Life threatening heart rhythms need
defibrillation immediately while other heart
rhythms may be defibrillated in a scheduled
fashion.
Defibrillation may be done using the manual
defibrillator or the automatic external
defibrillator (AED).
67 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 68: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Complication
The defibrillator pads may cause a skin
irritation and leave a temporary redden
area where they contacted the chest.
Unfortunately defibrillation does not
always return the patient’s heart rhythm
back to normal.
68 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 69: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
NURSES ROLE
Keep the patient in comfortable position
and obtain 12 lead ECG.
Give the patient 100 % oxygen by
inhalation.
Apply electrode paste on the DC paddle,
rub it and apply the paste at the patient’s
chest in the second intercostal space at the
right side of breast line and at the apex of
the heart.
69 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 70: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
TURN OFF the oxygen to the patient as a
spark from paddle could blow the oxygen
on the fire.
Be sure to say “ ALL CLEAR”. No one
should touch the patient or the bed during
cardioversion.
Check the rhythm on ECG monitor.
Keep the patient in comfortable position
and give 100% oxygen by inhalation.
70 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 71: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Report and record the procedure and
clean the paddle area with spirit swab.
Keep the difibrilator on continue electrical
charging.

MAINTENANCE OF ICU
EQUIPMENTS
Since ICU equipment is used continuously
on critically ill patients, it is essential that
equipment be properly maintained,
particularly devices that are used for life
support and resuscitation.
72 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 73: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Contd…
Staff in the ICU should perform daily checks on equipment and inform biomedical engineering staff when equipment needs maintenance, repair, or replacement.
For mechanically complex devices, service and preventive maintenance contracts are available from the manufacturer or third-party servicing companies, and should be kept current at all times.
73 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 74: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Health care team roles
Equipment in the ICU is used by a team
specialized in their use. The team usually
comprises a critical care attending
physician (also called an intensivist), critical
care nurses, an infectious disease team,
critical care respiratory therapists,
pharmacologists, physical therapists, and
dietitians.
74 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 75: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Radiologic technologists perform mobile x
ray examinations (bedside radiography).
Either nurses or clinical laboratory
personnel perform point-of-care blood
analysis. Equipment in the ICU is
maintained and repaired by hospital
biomedical engineering staff and/or the
equipment manufacturer.

3.CARDIAC PACING
Cardiac Pacing is
the repetitive
delivery of very
low electrical
energies to the
heart to initiate
and maintain
cardiac rhythm.
77 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 78: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)

Types of PA catheters
1. The thermo dilution catheter:
is the one described above; using this
catheter, thermo dilution cardiac output &
other divided haemodynamic parameters
may be measured
2. Pacing:
Some PAC’s have the capacity to provide
intra cardiac pacing
79 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 80: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
3. Mixed venous oxygen saturation:
Special fiber-optic PAC can be used to monitor
mixed venous oxygen saturation SVO2
continuously by the principle of absorption and
reflectance of light through blood
The normal SVO2 is 75% and a 5– 10 %
increase or decrease is considered significant
A significant decrease in SVO2 may be due to: (a) a decrease in the cardiac output
(b) increase in metabolic rate
(c) decrease in arterial oxygen saturation.
80 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 81: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
4. Ejection fraction catheter :
New-catheters with faster thermistor response times
can be used to determine the right ventricular ejection
fraction in addition to the cardiac output
5. Continuous cardiac output measurement
:
Continuous cardiac output measuring PACs contain
an integrated thermal filament at level of the RV
This filament is activated in a programmed sequence
to provide small amounts of heat, which is then
detected in the PA by a thermistor
The data by the device yields a rapidly updated, near
continuous value for cardiac output

DEFINITIONS
Cardiac output = CO (mL/min): volume of blood pumped by heart each minute
• Stroke volume = SV (mL/beat): volume of blood pumped by heart with each ventricular contraction
• Heart rate = HR (beats/min)
• Starlings law: the degree to which the ventricular walls are stretched by returning blood determines the stroke volume (more in = more out)
88 Prof. Dr. RS Mehta, BPKIHS
![Page 89: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Regulation of Cardiodynamics
Intrinsic: Within the heart (SV) – force of contraction related to degree of stretch of myocardium
Lots of stretch = increased force production
Extrinsic: outside the heart (NS: Autonomic or Hormonal) – Heart rate influenced by both sympathetic and parasympathetic (autonomic) nervous system – Stroke volume influenced by blood pressure

Definition
Hemodynamic regulation is known as
optimization of heart rate, preload, afterlo
ad, and contractility.
Heart rate, or heart pulse, is the speed
of the heartbeat measured by the number
of poundings of the heart per unit
of time — typically beats per
minute (bpm).

![Page 92: Monitoring & devices used in icu ccu](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022031806/58f9b160760da3da068bc015/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Contd…
Preload is the end diastolic pressure
that stretches the right or left ventricle of
the heart to its greatest geometric
dimensions under variable physiologic
demand
Afterload is the tension or stress
developed in the wall of the left ventricle
during ejection.
