Key result
Among surveyed Chinese anesthesiologists, 91.4% monitored invasive arterial pressure and 82.9% monitored central venous pressure during high-risk surgery, but only 13.3% monitored cardiac output.

Low cardiac output monitoring rates signal practice gaps; leaves open barriers, education needs, and outcome impact in high-risk surgery.
Cross-Sectional (n=210)
Yes
Chinese anesthesiologists predominantly rely on traditional hemodynamic monitoring such as blood pressure and central venous pressure rather than advanced cardiac output or dynamic parameters during high-risk surgery, highlighting a need for improved access and education.
Chen et al. (2014) conducted a cross-sectional in Hemodynamic monitoring and management practices for high-risk surgery (n=210). Hemodynamic monitoring practices was evaluated on Proportion of anesthesiologists using specific hemodynamic monitoring techniques during high-risk surgery. Among surveyed Chinese anesthesiologists, 91.4% monitored invasive arterial pressure and 82.9% monitored central venous pressure during high-risk surgery, but only 13.3% monitored cardiac output.
