A monitoring device for the circulation of a patient includes sensors for recording data, an input unit for inputting patient specific data and a connected a data recording and analysis device configured to determine the right atrial pressure (RAP), the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the cardiac output (CO) and to determine the mean systemic filling pressure (Pms) and to determine the cardiac efficiency (Eh) therefrom. A device records a pressure value (Pps,char) characterizing the pressure assistance during positive-pressure ventilation. The data recording and analysis device is configured to determine a pressure-corrected mean systemic filling pressure (Pms) and a pressure-corrected cardiac efficiency (Eh) by the difference from the right atrial pressure (RAP) and the pressure value (Pps,char) characteristic of the pressure assistance being used instead of the right atrial pressure (RAP). A display device displays the pressure-corrected mean systemic filling pressure (Pms) and the pressure-corrected cardiac efficiency (Eh).
