Transpulmonary thermodilution is widely used method for hemodynamic assessment in critically ill adults and children. However, the use of this method without strict indications and incorrect interpretation of data may lead to incorrect clinical decisions. This review is devoted to history of transpulmonary thermodilution, clinical problems and limitations in hemodynamic measurements in children.
