Edwards Lifesciences Swan-Ganz Pulmonary Artery Catheters – Comprehensive Hemodynamic Monitoring Solutions

Edwards Lifesciences' Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheters are designed to provide comprehensive hemodynamic monitoring in critically ill patients. These catheters facilitate continuous assessment of cardiac function by measuring parameters such as flow, pressure, and oxygen delivery and consumption. 

Key Features and Specifications:

• Continuous Monitoring: Swan-Ganz catheters enable real-time measurement of critical hemodynamic parameters, including:​

  • 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)​

• Catheter Variants:

  • Advanced Technology Catheters: Equipped with features like continuous cardiac output (CCO) monitoring and SvO₂ measurement.​
    • Example Model: 774F75 – Swan-Ganz CCOmbo V (CCO/SvO₂/CEDV) Thermodilution Catheter, 7.5 Fr.
