Less often, this assessment is made, using a pulmonary arterial catheter. Patients at particular risk for postoperative PHTN can be identified preoperatively based on their cardiac disease and can ...

This can be definitively obtained by measuring the pressure with a catheter that is placed through the heart into the pulmonary artery during cardiac catheterization. It’s not clear to me that ...

Dear K.T.: Dexfenfluramine, aka Redux (also called "fen-phen" in combination with phentermine), was sold in the 1990s until it was removed from the market in 1997 after valvular heart damage and ...

Interventions: A prograde right heart catheterization was performed, and cardiac output was determined using the thermodilution technique, via placement of a pulmonary arterial catheter.

The findings from this single-center retrospective study compare outcomes between 2 groups of patients living with connective ...
