Transseptal left-heart catheterization with Swan-Ganz flow-directed catheter
American Heart Journal, 1983Four cases of transseptal left-heart catheterization with the use of a Swan-Ganz flow-directed balloon-tipped catheter are reported. An 8.5F Teflon catheter covered with a Teflon tube (4 mm outer diameter) was inserted into the left atrium by the Brockenbrough technique.

Massive lobar pulmonary hemorrhage related to Swan-Ganz catheterization represents a catastrophic complication that, to our knowledge, has received little attention in the literature. Our experience with two recent cases emphasizes the life-threatening nature of such bleeding as well as the potential for patient salvage after urgent resectional therapy.

Fifty-seven patients requiring catheterization with a thermodilution Swan-Ganz catheter in the surgical intensive care unit were prospectively studied to determine the incidence and significance of positive pulmonary arterial blood cultures. Nonseptic (group 1) and septic (group 2) patients were identified, with subdivision of the groups into A and B ...

Treatment Effect Bounds under Monotonicity Assumptions: An Application to Swan-Ganz Catheterization
American Economic Review, 2008In Section I, we describe each of the resulting bounds when there are no other exogenous covariates that directly affect the outcome. We show that if the effect of the treatment is positive and the assumptions of SV hold, then the bounds of SV coincide with those of MP that assume a priori that the effect of the treatment is positive.

The Swan-Ganz catheter for pulmonary artery (PA) cannulation was introduced in 1970 and has been utilized in the management of critically ill and cardiac patients. Although the routine use of this catheter has not been associated with better patient outcomes in prospective randomized trials, their ability to provide crucial hemodynamic measurements and

Pulmonary artery flow-directed (Swan-Ganz [SG]) catheters are widely accepted as an integral part of the modern management of critically ill patients. Their use permits rational therapeutic decisions to be made on the basis of continuously evolving indices of ventricular function.

Coil Embolization Treatment in Pulmonary Artery Branch Rupture During Swan-Ganz Catheterization
CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2000Rupture of the pulmonary artery or one of its branches during Swan-Ganz catheterization is a complication that is rare but remains fatal in almost 50% of cases. The risk factors and mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of this accident have been widely reported.

Pacing in Left Bundle-Branch Block During Swan-Ganz Catheterization-Reply
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1988In Reply. —Drs Lavie and Gersh have addressed several important issues regarding our study. 1 They suggest that in patients with left bundle-branch block (LBBB), extensive symptomatic conduction disease or the use of rigid catheters pose additional risks for developing catheter-induced complete heart block.
