Pulmonary alveolar hemorrhage from a pulmonary artery false aneurysm after Swan-Ganz catheterization in a thoracic aortic aneurysm patient: a case report [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
Pulmonary artery (PA) rupture caused by a PA Swan-Ganz catheter is a rare complication but remains fatal in almost 50% of cases. False aneurysm of the PA is a rare presentation of PA rupture and should be considered as a possible diagnosis in a patient ...

On the History of Hepatic Vein Catheterization. [PDF]

Liver Int
ABSTRACT Hepatic vein catheterization (HVC) in man was first performed 80 years ago in the wake of right‐sided heart catheterization. Several new methods, recognitions and concepts followed, especially the indirect Fick‐method for determination of splanchnic blood flow. Five years passed before pressure measurements were performed and routine HVCs were

Echocardiography versus right heart catheterization in class I pulmonary hypertension

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2014
It has been agreed that pulmonary hypertension should be determined by right heart catheterization. However, being invasive and refused by many patients, echocardiography was thought to be a reasonable substitute to determine a solid diagnosis of ...

Right heart catheterization via hemiazygos-azygos collaterals in the setting of inferior vena cava stenosis [PDF]

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background In cases of inferior vena cava (IVC) obstruction, venous collaterals involving the hemiazygos and azygos veins can provide venous return to the right atrium. This can lead to procedural challenges in right heart catheterization (RHC).

Correlating Pulmonary Hemodynamics With HP ¹²⁹Xe Dissolved-Phase MRSI in a Controlled Porcine Intervention Study. [PDF]

Magn Reson Med
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.

Non-invasive assessment of central venous pressure in heart failure: a systematic prospective comparison of echocardiography and Swan-Ganz catheter

The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2020
Assessing hemodynamics, especially central venous pressure (CVP), is essential in heart failure (HF). Right heart catheterization (RHC) is the gold-standard, but non-invasive methods are also needed.

Use of Three-dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography for the Chiari Network [PDF]

Kosin Medical Journal, 2020
The Chiari network is an embryonic remnant of the sinus venosus valve, which is characterized by a fenestrated, netlike structure in the right atrium and has the potential to be misdiagnosed as another right atrial pathology.
