Percutaneous removal of a knotted pulmonary artery catheter using a tracheostomy dilator
STATEMENT OF FINDINGS: This case report describes removal of a knotted, subclavian, pulmonary artery catheter using a tracheostomy dilator. With this simple method an invasive procedure might be averted.
متن کاملThe knotted Swan-Ganz catheter: new solution to a vexing problem.
The Swan-Ganz catheter is used frequently in the intensive came unit for hemodynamic monitoring of critically ill patients. Knot formation at the end of the cathether occurs rarely, and a number of reports have dealt with methods for removing the knotted catheter without resorting to surgery [1 -4]. We have had three such cases at our institution within the past 6 months. We describe another me...
متن کاملMisplacement of temporary pacing wire into the left ventricle via an anomalous vein.
We report on a case where a temporary pacing wire that was inserted through the left internal jugular vein was subsequently noted to follow an unusual course on the chest radiograph. A 12-lead electrocardiogram showed right bundle branch block pattern during pacing, suggesting that the lead was pacing the left ventricle. Computed tomography of the chest demonstrated that the likely path of the ...
متن کاملTemporary epicardial pacing wire removal: is it an innocuous procedure?
The safety and efficacy of temporary pericardial pacing wires have been accepted and their use is common after cardiac operations. Complications related to pacing wire removal are unusual but it can be serious and even catastrophic. We report an unusual case of bleeding due the laceration and rent created in the saphenous vein graft wall by the metallic tip of the pacing wire at the time of pac...
متن کاملSingle-Lead DDD Pacing: Is There a Difference Between a Right and Left Subclavian Approach?
reduced lead-related complication rate due to the use of one instead of two leads [8]. Despite a significant reduction in the atrial pacing threshold achieved by integrating the OLBI principle into single-lead DDD systems, several studies reported on a still relatively high incidence of atrial capture failure using the free floating atrial electrodes [9-14]. Since the ability to pace the atrium...
