Monitoring is an essential aspect to the practice of anesthesiology. The American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) has established basic monitoring criteria for circulation, ventilation, oxygenation, and temperature. These monitors allow the anesthesia provider to observe ECG changes, monitor oxygen and anesthetic gas concentrations, quantify oxygen saturation, and maintain normothermia. These “standard” ASA monitors represent the minimum monitoring required for each anesthetic delivered. |
