Central Venous Pressure
Conditions
Brief summary
Recent studies indicated the central venous pressure (CVP) as a prognostic marker. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed the CVP on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) in cardiac surgery patients regarding its prognostic value for morbidity and mortality.
