  • Title: [Experience with the intracardiac floating catheter in the diagnostics of cardiac function (author's transl)].
    Author: Nechwatal W, Eversmann A, König E.
    Journal: MMW Munch Med Wochenschr; 1975 Sep 26; 117(39):1565-70. PubMed ID: 809701.
    Abstract:
    A report is made on the experience gained in more than 600 cardiac catheterizations using the Swan-Ganz-Intracardiac floating catheter. This procedure is an addition to the diagnostic possibilities and provides answers to cardiological and pulmonological questioning which, so far, had not been an indication for cardiac catheterism. Its advantage is the safety of application and little inconvenience to the patient with a high information content for the physician. If the investigations are carried out under ergometer load, new aspects of functional diagnostics arise with respect to problems requiring intimate knowledge of the myocardial function.
