| description | The monitoring of peripheral circulation, as indicated by the capillary refill time, is a sensitive and accurate method of assessing the microcirculatory status of the body. It is a widely used tool for the evaluation of critically ill patients, the guidance of therapeutic interventions, and the assessment of prognosis. In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on microcirculation monitoring which has led to an increased focus on capillary refill time. The International Sepsis Guidelines, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the World Health Organization, and the American Heart Association all recommend its inclusion in the evaluation of the system in question. Furthermore, the methodology for its measurement has evolved from a traditional manual approach to semiautomatic and fully automatic techniques. This article presents a comprehensive overview of the current research on the measurement of capillary refill time, with a particular focus on its clinical significance. The aim is to provide a valuable reference for clinicians and researchers and further advance the development and application of microcirculation monitoring technology. |
