Hemodynamics: Central Venous Pressure & Pulmonary Artery Pressure (Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressure)

It correlates the importance of fluid volume excess and fluid volume deficits and how the relate to the management of critically ill patients who are receiving vasoactive medications (positive inotropes, vasodilators and vasopressors). The different parts of the Swan Ganz and triple lumen central line catheters and how they relate to the patients' heart are delineated.
