The pulmonary artery catheter [PDF]
Clinical Medicine, 2002 The pulmonary artery catheter directly measures cardiac output, pulmonary artery pressures and the oxygen saturations of blood through the heart and in the pulmonary arteries. The mixed venous oxygen saturation enables an estimate of the oxygen supply/demand balance to be made.
