Effect of abnormal right heart structures on the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension
Pulmonary Circulation, 2018 The diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) requires a right heart catheterization (RHC) that reveals a mean pulmonary artery pressure ≥ 25 mmHg. The pulmonary artery catheter traverse the right atrium and ventricle on its way to the pulmonary artery ...

Pulmonary artery catheter induced pulmonary haemorrhage
Case Reports, 2009 Since its introduction three decades ago, the pulmonary artery (PA) catheter has brought insights into pathophysiology of many diseases enabling intensivists to treat critical conditions much more precisely and securely. PA indications are widening, and those working in an intensive care environment feel more secure in handling critical conditions with

Tying the knot: An uncommon complication
Clinical Case Reports, 2019 Cardiothoracic procedures require continuous hemodynamic monitoring and a fair proportion of these require the insertion of a pulmonary artery catheter, known also as Swan‐Ganz catheter. Given, however, the invasive nature of these procedures, unforeseen

Use of a right ventricular continuous flow pump to validate the distensible model of the pulmonary vasculature [PDF]
, 2019 In the pulmonary circulation, resistive and compliant properties overlap in the same vessels. Resistance varies nonlinearly with pressure and flow; this relationship is driven by the elastic properties of the vessels. Linehan et al. (1982) correlated the

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017 Massive pulmonary embolism (PE) carries high mortality if not treated urgently. Survival depends on rapid recanalization of pulmonary artery and reduction of right ventricular overload.

UV Exposed Optical Fibers with Frequency Domain Reflectometry for Device Tracking in Intra-Arterial Procedures [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Shape tracking of medical devices using strain sensing properties in optical fibers has seen increased attention in recent years. In this paper, we propose a novel guidance system for intra-arterial procedures using a distributed strain sensing device based on optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) to track the shape of a catheter.

Pulmonary valvulotomy in a fetus with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum : first experience in Turkey [PDF]
, 2012 The mortality and morbidity of children with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) is closely related with right ventricle hypoplasia and its consequent hemodynamics.

Non-invasive assessment of pulmonary vascular resistance in pulmonary hypertension: Current knowledge and future direction [PDF]
, 2017 Pulmonary Hypertension (PHT) is relatively common, dangerous and under-recognised. Pulmonary hypertension is not a diagnosis in itself; it is caused by a number of differing diseases each with different treatments and prognoses.

Aortic volume determines global end-diastolic volume measured by transpulmonary thermodilution [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) measured by transpulmonary thermodilution is regarded as indicator of cardiac preload. A bolus of cold saline injected in a central vein travels through the heart and lung, but also the aorta until ...
