Coil Embolization Treatment in Pulmonary Artery Branch Rupture During Swan-Ganz Catheterization

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology, 2000
Rupture 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.

Complications of Swan-Ganz Catheterization for Hemodynamic Monitoring in Patients with Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Neurosurgery, 1995
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 ...

Invasive hemodynamic monitoring in critically ill pregnant patients: Role of Swan-Ganz catheterization

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1980
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.

Use of the Swan-Ganz catheter in cardiac catheterization of infants and children

American Heart Journal, 1972
Abstract The Swan-Ganz balloon catheter was used during cardiac catheterization of 40 infants and children. The flow directional properties of the catheter proved useful in manipulating it into the great arteries of the patients with complex cardiac anomalies and in passing it from the left atrium and ventricle into the aorta in order to avoid an ...

[Perforation of the pulmonary artery following Swan-Ganz catheterization].

Annales francaises d'anesthesie et de reanimation, 1989
Pulmonary 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

Pacing in Left Bundle-Branch Block During Swan-Ganz Catheterization-Reply

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1988
In 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.

Autonomic Failure in Guillain-Barré Syndrome— Value of Swan-Ganz Catheterization

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979
To 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 ...

[Pulmonary thromboembolic complications of catheterization using the Swan-Ganz catheter].

Presse medicale (Paris, France : 1983), 1983
Twenty-two adult patients who had required catheterization with a Swan-Ganz catheter and had thrombosis of the internal jugular vein were investigated for pulmonary embolism. In 4 of these, pulmonary embolism was detected by angiography, and 2 patients who died with the catheter in situ had also pulmonary embolism.
