A monitoring device may include a display, an input device to receive patient-related data, and logic. The logic may determine the pulse pressure of the patient based on the patient-related data, calculate a respiratory variation of the pulse pressure of the patient, and generate a first value based on the respiratory variation of the pulse pressure of the patient and a mean pulse pressure of the patient. The logic may also output the first value to the display. The logic may update the first value in a continuous, real-time or near real-time manner.
