Summary: In patients undergoing AF ablation, continuous noninvasive blood pressure (CNBP) monitoring with the ClearSight device showed acceptable agreement with invasive radial arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring, suggesting potential clinical implications.

Summary: In this study, it was found that NICAP had poor correlation with arterial lines in elderly patients for the whole surgery or during anesthesia induction, and also showed poor comparability in detecting blood pressure change trends with arterial lines. These findings suggest that more accurate calibration and iteration are needed before NICAP can be clinically applied in elderly patients with comorbidities.

Summary: Dexmedetomidine usage in patients with acute respiratory failure undergoing noninvasive ventilation in the ICU can reduce the risk of intubation, delirium, and ICU length of stay, while increasing the risk of bradycardia and hypotension. However, the results are limited by uncertainty and further large randomized clinical trials are needed.

Summary: This study investigates the accuracy of noninvasive intracardiac pressure assessment using contrast microbubbles and the subharmonic-aided pressure estimation (SHAPE) technique. The results show that SHAPE technique with contrast microbubbles is efficacious for obtaining intracardiac pressures noninvasively and accurately.

Summary: This study investigated the causal relationship between slow waves of ICP, ABP, and FV using Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) method. The results showed a significant causal influence of FV on ICP, especially during the elevation of mean ICP during infusion study.

Summary: This study investigated the factors associated with differences in blood pressure management between IABP and NIBP in patients with hypertensive emergencies. The results showed a significant difference between the two modalities, with up to 30% of patients experiencing clinically relevant differences. Patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage were more likely to have differences affecting blood pressure management. Further studies are needed to confirm these observations.

Summary: Arterial compliance is an important cardiovascular parameter that characterizes mechanical and structural properties of arteries, influencing ventricular-arterial coupling. Decreased arterial compliance is associated with various physiological states and pathological processes, and is influenced by other cardiovascular parameters even at short time scales. There are numerous noninvasive methods for estimating arterial compliance in vivo, but confusion may arise in selecting the best method for specific applications.

Summary: Peripheral vascular assessment plays a crucial role in pre-procedural planning for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Despite alternative vascular access sites for patients with hostile iliofemoral anatomy, femoral access has been proven superior in achieving favorable procedural outcomes. This How-To-Do-It article provides a detailed description of the procedural planning and methods for performing intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) in patients with calcific stenoses of the iliofemoral arteries who require transfemoral access for TAVI.

Summary: Noninvasive pulse contour analysis (NPCA) using the CNAP Monitor was tested for its feasibility in heart transplant and left ventricular assist device (LVAD) patients. The results showed that NPCA was not suitable for noninvasive evaluation of hemodynamic status.

Summary: This paper presents a novel noninvasive process for in vivo measurement of carbon dioxide blood pressure by establishing linear mathematical relations between the mean mixture pressure and the radial velocity variation. A response model is proposed to describe the ultrasound signal backscattered by the solution, and a comparative study is conducted to determine the most appropriate method for computing the carbon dioxide pressure.

Summary: PATET ratio, a noninvasive quantitative measurement, is crucial in assessing pediatric PAH longitudinally. The review article discusses its application in infants, children, and neonatal mouse models, highlighting its potential as a routine measure for PAH evaluation. Studies are needed to further establish the role of PATET in disease models for precise monitoring and response to therapy.

Summary: In nonventilated patients undergoing TAVI, a significant drop in ScO2 during rapid ventricular pacing (RVP) was observed, with a decline of >20% being associated with an increased risk of delirium and stroke. Monitoring ScO2 levels during the procedure could be a valuable diagnostic tool to identify patients at high risk for cerebrovascular complications and delirium.

Summary: The study assessed the accuracy of current techniques against invasive intra-aortic measurements in children. Results showed that currently available radial artery transfer function accurately estimates central systolic blood pressure with invasive pulse pressure calibration, while age-appropriate transfer functions do not provide additional benefit. The accuracy of central augmentation index estimation appears to be transfer function dependent.
