Therapeutic indications:

The Swan-Ganz thermodilution catheters provide diagnostic information to rapidly determine haemodynamic pressures and cardiac output when used with a compatible cardiac output computer. It has a 7.5 French size catheter body and 110cm usable length, diameter of the inflated balloon is 13 mm. It has a thermistor and 4 lumens. In addition to the standard distal and injectate lumens, the Swan-Ganz VIP thermodilution catheter has an additional lumen that provides direct access to the right atrium. Swan-Ganz thermodilution catheters are indicated for the assessment of a patient's haemodynamic condition through direct intracardiac and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring, cardiac output determination, and for infusing solutions. The distal (pulmonary artery) port also allows sampling of mixed venous blood for the assessment of oxygen transport balance and the calculation of derived parameters such as oxygen consumption, oxygen utilisation coefficient, and intrapulmonary shunt fraction.
