Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of fundamental pathophysiologic concepts for the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disorders in critically ill patients. Three major topics are presented: 1) the importance of vascular–cardiac pump coupling as an integrated system, 2) practical considerations of ventricular dysfunction, and 3) systemic vessels as a crucial factor for cardiac output control and fluid responsiveness.
