We have not been monitoring CVPs since Process.  In general, central lines are 
placed when there are pressor requirements.  Arterial lines are used as needed 
for "higher" pressor requirements or in  patients who have difficulty in 
obtaining reliable manual BPs on pressors.  We are using the Edwards monitors - 
EV1000 for minimally invasive Flotrac  or non-invasive Clearsight in patients 
who are not quickly responsive or are felt to be more complex to monitor volume 
responsiveness via stroke volume.

CVP alone is really not considered a reliable measure of fluid responsiveness 
in septic patients.

Is anyone still using EGDT with placing CVP lines and arterial line to monitor 
fluid status? If so, do you feel this is beneficial?
