One catheter. Continuous parameters on three major integrated elements – flow, pressure, oxygen delivery and consumption – for a comprehensive hemodynamic profile when used with a compatible cardiac output monitor.
The clarity of a comprehensive hemodynamic profile* delivered by a single catheter to guide your treatment strategy.
The first flow-directed Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) revolutionized hemodynamic monitoring in critically ill patients.1 Edwards’ Swan-Ganz advanced technology pulmonary artery catheters offer a comprehensive hemodynamic profile delivered by a single catheter to help clinicians assess cardiovascular function and guide treatment decisions.*
Target complex patient conditions
Advanced hemodynamic parameters provided include continuous cardiac output (CCO) and mixed venous oximetry (SvO2), in addition to right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) and right ventricular end diastolic volume (RVEDV), to allow continuous monitoring of the balance of oxygen delivery and consumption. Since SvO2 is considered one of the earliest indicators of a threat to tissue oxygenation2,3, continuous SvO2 monitoring may alert clinicians to a change in the patient’s condition sooner than conventional monitoring methods.
