Ventricular 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 کاملTransesophageal echocardiography: a novel technique for guidance and placement of an epidural catheter in infants.
219 January 2013 E PIDURAL block has been used extensively in pediatric patients.1Epidural block reduces the need for opioid usage, improves hemodynamic stability,2 decreases the need for postoperative ventilator support,3and lowers perioperative stress levels.4 Although cephalad advancement of epidural catheters from the caudal space to the thoracic region is commonly used, blind catheter adva...
متن کاملThree-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography: diagnosing intraoperative pulmonary artery thrombus.
A 61-year-old patient with the diagnosis of acute heart failure based on severe mitral valve insufficiency due to chordae rupture was scheduled for surgery. Intraoperatively, a standard two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiogram (2D-TEE) examination, revealed severe mitral valve regurgitation due to a prolaps with chordal rupture and an echo dense structure in the pulmonary artery (PA). Bec...
متن کاملComparing the early function and complications between fluoroscopic guidance and blindly insertion of permanent hemodialysis catheter
Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complicated kidney defect causing permanent failure in renal function in progressive stages. Hemodialysis is the most accepted treatment to maintain body’s fluid/electrolyte homeostasis at the terminal stages of the disease. Permanent hemodialysis catheter (permicath) may be inserted blindly or by fluoroscopic guidance. This study aimed to compare th...
متن کاملPulmonary artery occlusion pressure estimation by transesophageal echocardiography: is simpler better?
The measurement of pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) is important for estimation of left ventricular filling pressure and for distinction between cardiac and non-cardiac etiology of pulmonary edema. Clinical assessment of PAOP, which relies on physical signs of pulmonary congestion, is uncertain. Reliable PAOP measurement can be performed by pulmonary artery catheter, but it is possibl...
