| Popis: | Since the proliferation of intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), many anesthesiologists have questioned the need for pulmonary artery catheters (PACs), particularly in routine coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgeries. Utilization of PACs still widely varies between anesthesiologists in cardiac surgery as there is no clear consensus in the literature. This chapter examines both sides of the debate by reviewing the clinical utility of PACs versus TEE, outcomes literature and published recommendations. Important considerations including PAC complications, costs and training are discussed as well. |
