Silent Pulmonary Artery Dissection in a patient with old Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Percutaneous pulmonary balloon valvuloplasty (PBV) remains the treatment of choice for pulmonary stenosis (PS). This procedure is effective, safe and gives excellent results. Pulmonary artery (PA) dissection is a rare complication of PBV. This report is a case of an asymptomatic 17-year-old male with a history of PBV due to severe PS dating back to fifteen years ago. During recent echocardiogra...
متن کاملIntegrated Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Occlusion and Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Introduction: Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases during childhood. Today, ASD closure is done by occlutech device via cardiac catheterization. ASD repair with transcatheter technique has shown high closure rate. However, coexistence of severe pulmonary stenosis and large defect in atrial septum is rare. When these two problems coexist, the result is i...
متن کاملPulmonary artery catheter occlusion as an indication of pulmonary embolus.
Two patients with respiratory failure had consistently reproducible findings on insertion of flow directed pulmonary artery catheters which led to the subsequent diagnosis of pulmonary embolus. Occlusion of the catheter tip and development of a rising "overwedge" tracing on deflation of the balloon may mean the catheter tip has become embedded in clot. When combined with the inability to obtain...
متن کاملVentricular asystole during pulmonary artery catheter insertion.
669 September 2015 A the overall pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) use has decreased, it remains a valuable tool in select patients. PAC insertion may result in ventricular or supraventricular dysrhythmias due to contact of the catheter with the cardiac chamber walls. The use of balloon-tipped catheters during insertion serves to increase the catheter tip surface area, thereby mitigating applied ...
متن کاملThe pulmonary artery catheter.
Clinical Medicine Vol 2 No 2 March/April 2002 101 The flow-directed pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) has been in clinical use since its introduction by Swan and colleagues in 19701. During that time it has become widely used in critical care units throughout the world and is now the most commonly utilised form of flow monitoring. The haemodynamic data obtained with a PAC are used to monitor and ...
