After catheter is pulled out of left ventricle (arrow), the pressure gradient is lost.[Reproduced by permission from Kern (2003)] Thermodilution A Swan-Ganz catheter enables cardiac output to be monitored in the right atrium. The catheter balloon is inflated to float the catheter tip to the ...

@Oceana – The balloon is simply for keeping the catheter from slipping out of the bladder. The tube has another end diverting off of it with a hole for collecting urine. My aunt had to have bladder surgery after a car accident, and she had to have a Foley catheter for a few weeks....
The balloon was inflated slowly until it was visible in the uterine cavity and was then pulled out gently to juxtapose the gestational sac. When it was in place, the balloon was further inflated to place pressure on the area injected or aspirated (Figure 3). The balloon could also be ...
Subsequently, the stent-retriever was deployed for three minutes and then pulled back into the standard or novel model under aspiration with a vacuum pressure syringe (60 ml, VacLok®, Vacuum pressure syringes; Merit Medical System 60 ml) set to a negative pressure vacuum of 40 mmHg ...

To remove the device from the vessel site following use, balloon 70 is deflated and the occlusion catheter is pulled back (proximally) until the two balloons are immediately adjacent. After deflating balloon 30, the device is withdrawn as a unit, achieving hemostasis by manual compression. ...
Preferably, the coupling means allows the length of the balloon member to increase automatically when external pressures are applied to the inflated balloon member. This feature of the invention brings with it the important advantage that when the balloon catheter is being pulled through a body passa...
A pressure device for use with a balloon angioplasty catheter includes a housing, a syringe body, rubber stopper and a pressure gauge. The rubber stopper is connected to a threaded plunger leading to
