Paceport Swan-Ganz Data Collection Study

July 31, 2025 updated by: University of Minnesota

Early Identification of Right Ventricular Dysfunction and Failure in Cardiothoracic and Liver Surgical Patients

In association with Edwards LifeSciences, the study will aim to develop an algorithm based on right heart (right atrial, right ventricular and pulmonary artery) waveforms for the early detection of RV dysfunction in cardiothoracic and liver surgery patients at UMMC. This is a prospective, non-interventional, observational study.

  2. Participate in the Informed Consent process and sign/date the approved informed consent forms
  3. Projected to receive Swan-Ganz paceport catheter as part of procedure/standard of care with intermittent cardiac output and mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) measures

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with a history of internal jugular vein thrombosis or known reasons for not being able to thread a central venous catheter through either internal jugular vein
  2. Patients with a history of known esophageal strictures, esophageal or stomach cancer, esophageal varices, or any patient in whom a TEE is contraindicated
  3. Patients with permanent pacemakers whose right ventricle is being paced and not in normal sinus rhythm
