Thrombogenicity of pulmonary-artery catheters
Intensive Care Medicine, 1987The thrombogenicity of heparin-bonded and non-heparin-bonded pulmonary-artery catheters was compared by means of pull-out phlebography in a prospective, randomized clinical study of 20 patients in an intensive care unit (ICU). The duration of catheterization averaged 47.4 +/- 4.1 h in the heparin-bonded group (10 patients) and 45.7 +/- 7.1 h in the non-

Movement of pulmonary artery catheters
Heart and Vessels, 1996Intraluminal movements of pulmonary artery catheters are seldom considered, although they may have a significant impact on flow measurement and safety. The purpose of this study was to document the movements of these catheters within the heart cycle, and to establish whether any patterns existed.

The pulmonary artery catheter has a rich history in modern critical care medicine and provided the basis for the science of advanced hemodynamic monitoring. While significant controversy exists regarding the current utility of the catheter, an understanding of the hemodynamic data provided by the pulmonary artery catheter, as well as limitations and ...

The pulmonary arterial catheter (PAC) is used for almost five decades to monitor patients with acute severe cardiovascular disease or being at the risk of circulatory complications during heart surgery. The development of less invasive technologies, mainly ultrasound-based methods as echocardiography and Doppler, had reduced the indications of PAC. The

Is the pulmonary artery catheter useful?
Best Practice & Research Clinical Anaesthesiology, 2005In the United States more than 1.5 million pulmonary artery catheters (PACs) are inserted each year. Of these, approximately 55% are placed in high-risk surgical and trauma patients. Most clinicians believe that PAC use is beneficial in guiding therapy and may improve outcome.

Misplacement of a Pulmonary Artery Catheter
A & A Case Reports, 2014Placing a flow-directed pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) can be difficult and lead to serious complications. We present the case of an attempted PAC insertion in a patient undergoing implantation of a left ventricular assist device. Although physiologic pressure waveforms were established, plausible measurements of cardiac output and pulmonary capillary

Balloon floatation pulmonary artery catheters (PACs) have been used for hemodynamic monitoring in cardiac, medical, and surgical intensive care units since the 1970s. With the availability of newer noninvasive diagnostic modalities, particularly echocardiography, the frequency of diagnostic pulmonary artery catheterization has declined. In this review,

Catheter colonization and bacteremia with pulmonary and arterial catheters
Critical Care Medicine, 1982We prospectively studied the incidence of catheter-related sepsis in 51 critically ill patients who underwent 52 arterial and 37 pulmonary artery catheterizations over a period of 3 months. Daily cultures of blood and catheter insertion site were done and the catheters were cultured semiquantitatively at the time of removal.

Since 1970, pulmonary artery catheters (PACs) have been used in clinical practice to monitor the hemodynamic status of critically ill and injured patients. This technology was introduced and commercialized without considerable testing to determine safety and efficacy.
