Examples in Context
- Aortic and right atrial pressure were measured by invasive catheter.
- Meanwhile the plasma ANP level was positively correlated with right atrial pressure and hematocrit, respectively.
- RESULTS : In sodium restricted group, the plasma sodium and atrial ANP and left ventricular systolic pressure and artery pressure were obviously lower than those in CHF group, while the plasma and ventricular ANP and the right atrial pressure were remarkably higher;
- CONCLUSION : ① Compared with escharectomy at shock stage, ultra-early escharectomy can increase the cardiac output, right atrial pressure and other indexes of the hemodynamics and improve the oxygen supply and oxygen consumption.
- Swan-Ganz catheter was inserted in ten AMI patients to record the hemodynamic parameters including heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, right atrial pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, cardiac output, cardiac index, systemic and pulmonary vascular resistance.
