Right Heart Catheterization
Jeremy Swan (1922-2005),
an Irish cardiologist, worked
in the Mayo Clinic,
Rochester, and later moved to

Swan-Ganz Catheter: History
Jeremy Swan (19222005), an Irish
cardiologist, worked in
the Mayo Clinic,
Rochester, and later
moved to Cedars-Sinai
Medical Center in Los
Angeles .
His description of the
invention of the catheter is
said to have derived from
watching the wind playing
with sails in Santa
Monica .
William Ganz (born
1919), an American
cardiologist, at CedarsSinai Medical Center,
Los Angeles, a Professor
of Medicine, University
of California, Los
Angeles, CA.
The work of Ganz on the
thermodilution method
of measuring cardiac
output was incorporated
into the catheter's use.

A wave – backward flow of blood produced after atrial contraction
C wave – tricuspid valve closing after ventricular systole
X descent – just after the c wave, a drop in jugular pressure as a result of isovolumic
ventricular contraction and early atrial filling
V wave – resulting from back-pressure from right atrial filling and ventricular
contraction
Y descent – follows the V wave , is a result of the tricuspid valve opening and passive
filling of the ventricle during ventricular relaxation

atrium to the left ventricle
– Atrial myxoma may produce

25.

Cardiac Output
Three main invasive methods of measurement
– Flick method
– Indicator-dilution method
– Angiographic method

26. Mitral Stenosis

Fick Method
The amount of oxygen extracted by the lungs from air = The amount taken up by
blood in its passage through the lungs
• rate of lung oxygen extraction (estimated)
• oxygen content of the pulmonary arterial and pulmonary venous blood
• the rate of pulmonary blood flow can be calculated
• pulmonary blood flow=cardiac output (Unless there is a shunt)
•CO=O2 consumption/AVO2 difference x 1.36 x Hgb x 10 (L/min)

27. Cardiac Output

The Indicator-dilution Technique and
Thermodilution Technique
• Dilution of an indicator is proportional to the volume of fluid to which it is
added
• If the amount and concentration (Temperature) of an indicator is known the
volume of fluid in which it is diluted can be calculated
• The most common is the thermodilution method

28. Fick Method

33. Cardiac Output (Low)

Shunts
Demonstrated by an absence of an expected pressure
difference
With a significant ASD the left and right mean atrial
pressures are within 5 mmHg
With VSD’s the ventricular pressures may also
equilibrate

34. Cardiac Output (Low)

Shunts
Evaluation of shunts requires:




Detection
Classification
Localization
Quantitation

35. Shunts

Left to Right Shunts
• Mixing of saturated (systemic arterial or
pulmonary venous) with desaturated
(systemic venous or pulmonary arterial)
blood on the right side of the circulation
• Increased pulmonary blood-flow relative
to the systemic blood-flow

36. Shunts

Right to Left Shunts
• Mixing of desaturated (systemic venous or pulmonary arterial)
with saturated (systemic arterial or pulmonary venous) blood on
the left side of the circulation, thus creating a oxygen step-down
• Decreased pulmonary blood flow relative to systemic blood flow

Left Heart Catheterization: History
First human catheterization by Werner Forssmann: 1929
His work was not recognized until after World War II, when André
Cournand and Dickinson W. Richards, working in the US,
demonstrated the importance of catheterization to the diagnosis of
heart and lung diseases. Forssmann and the two Americans shared
the 1956 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work.
Selective coronary angiography by Mason Sones, working at the
Cleveland Clinic: 1958
Melvin P. Judkins introduced the method he developed for
transfemoral selective coronary angiography, known as the Judkins
technique: 1966
Andreas Gruentzig in Zurich, Switzerland performed the first
angioplasty on an awake patient, which was the first case to be
entered into a worldwide percutaneous transluminal coronary
angioplasty (PTCA) registry: 1977
Jacques Puel and Ulrich Sigwart inserted the first stent in a human
coronary artery

Coronary Anatomy
Depending on coronary anatomy: 1 VD, 2 VD and 3 VD; LMCA disease

49.

Treatment Strategies of CAD
Medical treatment, PCI or CABG
- for pts with distal CAD; risk factors modification, ASA,
b-blockers, Ca-channel antagonists, nitrates
PCI: for pts with treatable lesions in coronary arteries
CABG: for pts with 3 VD, LMCA- disease and lesions
that can not be treated with PCI

50.

Percutaneous Coronary Interventions (PCI)
1977: 1st Coronary angioplasty by
Gruntzig
Limitation: restenosis
1939-1985

51. Treatment Strategies of CAD

PCI Procedural refinements: Stents
Expandable metal mesh tubes that buttresses the dilated segment,
limit restenosis.
Drug eluting stents: further reduce cellular proliferation in response
to the injury of dilatation.

52. Percutaneous Coronary Interventions (PCI)

Treatment Strategies of CAD
Stable angina
Unstable angina/non ST-elevation MI
- Risk stratification; high-risk patients: elderly, history of
CAD/MI, ST-T changes and positive cardiac markers
(CK-MB and/or Troponin)
- Early invasive approach including coronary
angiography within 72 hours followed by medical
management (30%), PCI (60%) or CABG (10%)

53. PCI Procedural refinements: Stents

Treatment Strategies of CAD
Stable angina
Unstable angina/non ST-elevation MI
- Risk stratification; high-risk patients: elderly, history of
CAD/MI, ST-T changes and positive cardiac markers
(CK-MB and/or Troponin)
- Early invasive approach including coronary
angiography within 72 hours followed by medical
management (30%), PCI (60%) or CABG (10%)
STEMI
- Primary PCI as early as possible at any time
- Thrombolysis (STK, TPA, TNK)

54.

STEMI: PCI vs. Thrombolysis
Advantages of PCI
Knowledge of CA anatomy
Complete opening of the artery
with low rates of reinfarction
Low risk of bleeding
Low risk of stroke
Disadvantages
Needs time
Absence of approach
Advantages of Thrombolysis
Very quick
May be given in ambulance as
bolus
Disadvantages
Relatively high incidence of
bleeding complications
Stroke up to 2%
Reinfarction
