CORRELATION OF PULMONARY CAPILLARY WEDGE PRESSURE CALCULATED BY ECHO-DOPPLER WITH INVASIVE MEASUREMENT BY SWAN GANZ CATHETER IN POST CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT PATIENTS
Abstract
The present study was conducted to correlate PCWP estimated by Doppler Echocardiography with that obtained by Swan-Ganz catheter in patients with post coronary artery bypass graft surgery and to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of Doppler Echocardiographic data. The present study provides evidence that in patients with coronary artery disease who underwent elective CABG surgery, PCWP can be reliably and accurately estimated by combining Doppler Echocardiographic variables of mitral flow and Tissue Doppler imaging and the relationship between E/Ea ratio and measured PCWP by Swan Ganz catheter was the strongest of all Doppler variables determined.
