Pulmonary artery rupture associated with the Swan-Ganz catheter.
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine the incidence rate, define risk factors, and suggest proper management protocols for pulmonary artery (PA) rupture associated with Swan-Ganz catheters. DESIGN This is a retrospective chart-review study. SETTING This study involved 32,442 inpatients requiring hemodynamic monitoring with Swan-Ganz catheters in the operating rooms and ICUs at a l...

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 ...
متن کاملPulmonary Artery Agenesis with Bronchial Asthma
Unilateral Pulmonary Artery Agenesis (UPAA) is a rare congenital anomaly during the 4 th week of gestational age. It is defined as an absence of pulmonary parenchyma and its supporting artery. A 9-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital because of chronic cough. Chest examination showed a decrement in lung sound of right hemi-thorax with expiratory wheeze. Chest radiography (CXR) revealed a...
متن کاملPulmonary artery rupture by the Swan-Ganz catheter: case report.
Pulmonary artery catheter is frequently used to monitor patients during liver transplantation. Recently developed less invasive methods for estimating cardiac output and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure together with the failure of randomized studies to demonstrate reduced mortality in pulmonary artery catheter-monitored patients, has restricted its applicability. Pulmonary artery rupture by ...
متن کاملCatheter-induced pulmonary artery rupture: haemodynamic compromise necessitates surgical repair.
Pulmonary artery haemorrhage is thankfully a very rare complication following pulmonary artery catheter insertion. It carries a significant mortality of 50%, and most cases are managed conservatively or with embolization therapy. We present an occult case, in which a patient presented with haemodynamic compromise without haemoptysis or significant haemothorax, who required surgical intervention...
