Swan-Ganz VIP and VIP+ thermodilution catheters are pulmonary artery catheters for assessing a critically ill patient’s hemodynamic condition. They support direct intracardiac and pulmonary artery pressure monitoring, cardiac output determination, and infusion of solutions.
An inflatable balloon at the catheter tip helps blood flow carry it into the pulmonary artery. The catheter connects to a compatible Edwards monitoring system for the measurements supported by its model.
