Indications for Swan-Ganz catheterization.
Heart disease and stroke : a journal for primary care physicians, 1994The Swan-Ganz catheter provides a relatively easy means of obtaining a wealth of information about intracardiac pressures and flows. The catheter also is useful for intracardiac pacing. Because any invasive procedure entails some risk, albeit small in the case of the Swan-Ganz catheter, insertion of a catheter usually is reserved for hemodynamically ...

Fatal pulmonary hemorrhage complicating Swan-Ganz catheterization.
Surgery, 1982A case of fatal pulmonary hemorrhage secondary to catheterization with a balloon-tipped catheter is described, and the literature describing possible mechanisms for this complication is reviewed. A common denominator in patients suffering pulmonary hemorrhage is pulmonary hypertension. Recommendations for management of this complication are discussed.

Invasive hemodynamic monitoring has become standard in the management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. This study is a retrospective analysis of 630 Swan-Ganz catheters placed in 184 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Evaluation of complications demonstrated a 13% incidence of catheter-related sepsis (81 of 630 catheters), a 2 ...

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.

[Perforation of the pulmonary artery following Swan-Ganz catheterization].
Annales francaises d'anesthesie et de reanimation, 1989Pulmonary arterial rupture due to the use of a Swan-Ganz catheter is a rare accident, with an estimated 2% incidence rate. It is fatal in almost 50% of cases. Predisposing factors are age greater than 60 years, pulmonary arterial hypertension and anticoagulant treatment. In patients older than 60 years, changes in the arterial wall increase the risk of

Autonomic Failure in Guillain-Barré Syndrome— Value of Swan-Ganz Catheterization
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979To the Editor.— Idiopathic polyneuritis (Guillain-Barre syndrome) is a distinctive disorder characterized by ascending paralysis, areflexia, and elevated CSF protein. Sudden death is seen, and although there are numerous possibilities in these bedridden patients (eg, myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism), it has been assumed that the bulk of ...
