CARDIAC MONITORS Cardiac monitoring devices can be used 

to
monitor how long the irregular beats last and
how often they occur.

HEMODYNAMIC MONITORING DEVICE Hemodynamic monitoring devices enable in

monitoring blood volume, ECG, heart rate,
blood gas analysis, blood pressure, central
venous pressure, temperature, and oxygen
perfusion/peripheral venous oxygen
saturation. These devices are also useful in
monitoring patients in critical care units
following surgical procedures.

INTRA-AORTIC BALLOON PUMPS The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), also

called the balloon pump, is a machine that
helps the heart pump blood throughout the

inserted into the aorta, one of the large
arteries through which blood passes from the
heart to the rest of the body; and a machine
outside the body.
