Abstract

The Grollman pulmonary artery catheter was modified by turning the pigtail downward to facilitate lower lobar catheterization with the femoral approach. The advantage of this tip configuration was obvious in the 30 cases in which it was attempted. The superiority of this catheter in traversing the tricuspid valve and in entering the right or left pulmonary artery with equal ease was also noted.

摘要

格罗尔曼肺动脉导管进行了改良，将猪尾向下翻转，以便于经股动脉途径进行下叶插管。在尝试使用这种尖端构型的30例病例中，其优势显而易见。还注意到这种导管在穿过三尖瓣以及同样轻松地进入右或左肺动脉方面具有优越性。
