ABSTRACT Purpose Pulmonary hypertension is related to a 1‐year mortality ranging from < 5% to > 20% in low‐ and high‐risk groups. Right heart catheterization is the diagnostic gold standard, associated with a 1.1% rate of severe adverse events, posing the need for a non‐invasive diagnostic tool.

Abstract Background and Purpose Rare but severe adverse events (AEs) associated with mRNA‐lipid nanoparticle (LNP) COVID‐19 vaccines, such as Comirnaty, include anaphylaxis and inflammatory organ disorders, but their underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We aimed to develop an animal model to study these phenomena.

Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm as a Swan-Ganz catheter complication
To the Editor, We present the case of a 65-year-old woman without any known drug allergies and with a previous cardiac history of atrial fibrillation treated with warfarin and rheumatic poly-valve disease with double mitral valve lesion (severe mitral ...

Displays bar graphs showing outcome rates stratified by clinical and hemodynamic variables. Asterisks (*) denote statistically significant differences (p ≤ 0.05). “NS” indicates non‐significant comparisons. Percentages are shown above each bar. The top panel corresponds to acute kidney injury (blue bars), and the bottom panel corresponds to acute ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The liver is essential for bacterial elimination, preventing intestinal bacteria from entering the systemic circulation, and for producing inflammatory cytokines. Glucocorticoids have been reported to exert heterogeneous effects on bacterial clearance in sepsis.

Snaring of a Swan-Ganz catheter
Insertion of a Swan-Ganz catheter for measurement of pulmonary artery and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures is common for operative management of patients with borderline left ventricular function, particularly patients undergoing cardiac surgery. The transatrial course of the catheter may allow it to lie against the lateral and anterior walls of the

Assessment of Pulmonary Vascular Impedance in Patients With Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ) was calculated from clinical PA pressure and RVOT flow velocity profiles. Participants with increased pulmonary vascular resistance have increased PVZ, afterload, and diastolic stiffness. The characteristic impedance (ZC) to mean PA pressure relationship models the effect of proximal vasculature remodeling on ZC for a

Ultrasound guided pulmonary artery catheter insertion: An alternative to fluoroscopic guidance
Pulmonary artery catheters (PACs) can provide extremely valuable objective data in select patients. They are usually advanced by floatation of balloon tip along the normal blood flow and their placement is confirmed under pressure waveform guidance ...

ABSTRACT Background Intensive care following resuscitation from out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is based on a set of interventions, all of which are intended to reduce anoxic brain injury and improve outcomes, including sedation, mechanical ventilation, circulatory optimization, and temperature control protocols.

ABSTRACT Background Hemodynamic management after out‐of‐hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is critical, yet the impact of vasopressor‐driven mean arterial pressure (MAP) targets on pulmonary circulation and right ventricular (RV) function remains unclear.
