2018 - Swan Ganz Catheter in Critical Care
Tracking # 20-606599
Course overview
The Swan-Ganz pulmonary artery catheter is a useful device, however its declining use increases the risk of injury from lack of knowledge and experience. This article will cover the basics of insertion, waveform monitoring and troubleshooting and shock. We also offer a cheat sheet with all the waveform and troubleshooting information on a 4x6 inch PVC plastic cheat sheet that you can purchase for less than a designer cup of coffee.
