Ventricular Arrhythmias During Swan-Ganz Catheterization of the Critically III
The incidence of ventricular arrhythmias in critically-ill patients during bedside right-sided heart catheterization with a flow-directed balloon-tipped catheter was determined. Twenty-nine of 60 catheterizations (48 percent) were associated with premature ventricular contractions and 20 (33 percent) were associated with ventricular tachycardia.

Osteomyelitis of the Clavicle After Swan-Ganz Catheterization
• Osteomyelitis of the clavicle is an uncommon complication of Swan-Ganz catheterization. The diagnosis should be suspected when the clinical features of fever and sternoclavicular pain are present. Traditional roentgenograms may be falsely normal early in the disease.

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 ...

Pitfalls of Swan-Ganz catheterization
Critical Care Medicine, 1977In 60 patients in whom Swan-Ganz catheters apparently had been positioned correctly, the balloon was visualized by inflation with radiopaque contrast medium. Sixteen were located peripherrally; in 15 of these 16, the balloon inflated eccentrically and in each of these instances, an accurate wedge pressure could not be obtained.
