Arterial cannulation is strongly recommended during shock. Nevertheless, this procedure is associated with significant risks and may delay other emergent procedures. We assessed the discriminative power of brachial cuff oscillometric noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) for identifying patients with an invasive mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) below 65 mm Hg or increasing their invasive MAP after cardiovascular interventions.
