Trying to get a good handle on the Hypotension aspect of this.  Should we be 
looking at the bp and MAP or just the MAP.  I have been using both - however 
the argument was brought to me that is the MAP is still above 65 the patient is 
profusing so intervention should not be needed??
Also are there set parameters for bp when looking for hypotension or are we to 
use the standard of below 120/80?
Can you give any information on the proper way to screen and/or abstract ??
