Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheters offer continuous parameters on three major integrated elements – flow, pressure, and oxygen delivery and consumption – for a comprehensive hemodynamic profile when used with a compatible cardiac output monitor.
Swan-Ganz catheter
Continuous view of cardiac function in your most complex patients
The first flow-directed Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheter revolutionized hemodynamic monitoring in critically ill patients. Utilizing continuous data, Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheters track your patient’s hemodynamic status to assist your early evaluation.
Swan-Ganz advanced technology pulmonary artery catheters enable continuous assessment of flow, pressure, and oxygen delivery and consumption, so you have an uninterrupted view of cardiac function for proactive decisions support in your most complex patients.
Target complex patient conditions with advanced hemodynamic parameters
Swan-Ganz catheter allows continuous monitoring of the balance of oxygen delivery and consumption with these advanced hemodynamic parameters:
Mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2)
Cardiac output (CO)
Stroke volume (SV)
Systemic vascular resistance (SVR)
Right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF)
Right ventricular end diastolic volume (RVEDV)
Pulmonary artery pressure (PAP)
Pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP)*
SvO2 mixed venous oxygen saturation
Swan-Ganz Oximetry catheters allow for the continuous monitoring of mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) which updates every 2 seconds. SvO2 is a continuous assessment of the balance between oxygen delivery and consumption.
