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.

Tying the knot: An uncommon complication
Cardiothoracic procedures require continuous hemodynamic monitoring and a fair proportion of these require the insertion of a pulmonary artery catheter, known also as Swan‐Ganz catheter. Given, however, the invasive nature of these procedures, unforeseen

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 ...

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 ...

Minimally Invasive Porcine Model for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
ABSTRACT To elucidate the complex pathophysiology of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), a disease associated with bilateral fibrotic obstructions of the pulmonary arteries (PA) and microvascular changes, research relies on animal models, which often depend on invasive techniques, including open surgery.

The prevalence of pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) entrapment in open-heart surgery is scarce with a prevalence rate of 0.065%. Challenges in managing such cases lie particularly in choosing the modalities (chest roentgenogram, fluoroscopy, and ...

ABSTRACT Diagnosing pulmonary hypertension (PH) requires invasive right heart catheterization (RHC). However, mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) can be non‐invasively estimated using 4D analysis of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) flow imaging to assess the duration of pathological vortex flow (Tvortex) in the main pulmonary artery (MPA ...

ABSTRACT Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is frequently complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. However, the prognostic significance of invasive hemodynamic parameters obtained at index right heart catheterization (RHC) in adults with RHD and echocardiographic RV–pulmonary artery (PA) uncoupling remains ...

ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is defined by elevated mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP). Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and SvO2 (mixed venous oxygenation), measured by right heart catheterization (RHC), are key determinants of disease severity and prognosis.
