Pulmonary artery catheters [PDF]
The description of the flow directed pulmonary artery catheter in 1970 and its subsequent commercial development allowed clinicians to measure cardiac output and derive central haemodynamic parameters at the bedside.1 On the assumption that measuring and manipulating these variables would improve outcomes, this device became widely used in intensive ...

Objectives: Identifying patients who will have an increase in their cardiac output from volume administration is difficult to identify. We propose the use of carotid flow time, which is a non-invasive means to determine if a patient is volume responsive.

Introduction. Intimal sarcoma is a very rare tumor arising within the intima of the pulmonary artery. Preoperative diagnosis of pulmonary artery sarcoma is difficult, and the tumor is sometimes misdiagnosed as pulmonary thromboembolism.

The pulmonary artery catheter [PDF]
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.

Tissue plasminogen activator dose and pulmonary artery pressure reduction in catheter directed thrombolysis of submassive pulmonary embolism. [PDF]
PURPOSE:The purpose of this study is to assess the incremental effect of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) dose on pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and bleeding during catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) of submassive pulmonary embolism (PE). MATERIALS

Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery I: Patient Selection, Evaluation, and Planning. [PDF]
Widespread adoption of minimally invasive mitral valve repair and replacement may be fostered by practice consensus and standardization. This expert opinion, first of a 3-part series, outlines current best practices in patient evaluation and selection ...

A unique case of pulmonary artery catheter bleeding from the oximetry connection port
Pulmonary artery catheter is an invasive monitor usually placed in high-risk cardiac surgical patients to optimize the cardiac functions. We present this case of blood oozing from the oximetry connection port of the pulmonary artery catheter that ...

Goal-directed therapy in intraoperative fluid and hemodynamic management. [PDF]
Intraoperative fluid management is pivotal to the outcome and success of surgery, especially in high-risk procedures. Empirical formula and invasive static monitoring have been traditionally used to guide intraoperative fluid management and assess volume
