Incremental Experience in In Vitro Primary Culture of Human Pulmonary Arterial Endothelial Cells Harvested from Swan-Ganz Pulmonary Arterial Catheters

Cells, 2021
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a devastating condition affecting the pulmonary microvascular wall and endothelium, resulting in their partial or total obstruction.

Massive haemoptysis on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]

, 2012
A 49-year old female presented with severe heart failure with end-organ dysfunction and was placed on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a bridge to a decision for end-organ recovery.

Assessment of left atrial volume before and after pulmonary thromboendarterectomy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundImpaired left ventricular diastolic filling is common in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), and recent studies support left ventricular underfilling as a cause.

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 ...

Tricuspid-regurgitation-mediated flow-driven right-to-left cardiac shunting caused systemic hypoxemia in a patient with patent foramen ovale without elevated right atrial pressure

Heliyon, 2023
The prevalence of patent foramen ovale (PFO) is 20–25% among adults. The role of right-to-left shunting through the PFO in systemic hypoxemia remains poorly understood.

Validation of impedance cardiography in pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Non-invasive methods of measuring cardiac output are highly desirable in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We therefore sought to validate impedance cardiography (ICG) against thermodilution (TD) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in ...

Comparison of echocardiographic indices of right ventricular systolic function and ejection fraction obtained with continuous thermodilution in critically ill patients

Critical Care, 2019
Background Though echocardiographic evaluation assesses the right ventricular systolic function, which of the existing parameters best reflects the right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) in the critically ill patients is still uncertain.

Ruptura da artéria pulmonar pelo cateter de Swan-Ganz: relato de caso Pulmonary artery rupture by the Swan-Ganz catheter: case report

Revista Brasileira de Terapia Intensiva, 2009
O cateter de artéria pulmonar é frequentemente usado na monitorização de pacientes durante o transplante hepático. O advento de métodos menos invasivos para estimar o débito cardíaco e a pressão de oclusão da artéria pulmonar, aliado ao fracasso de ...

Extrahepatic complications of liver transplantation. [PDF]

, 1985
The massive surgical assault associated with hepatic transplantation makes a high frequency of complications almost inevitable. In this review of 225 patient records, selected at random from cases of liver transplantation in Pittsburgh over a 2 1/2 year ...
