Prediction of the ideal length of insertion to monitor left atrial pressures in pediatric open-heart surgery: a retrospective cohort study

Prediction of the ideal length of insertion to monitor left atrial pressures in pediatric open-heart surgery: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract Background Monitoring the left atrial pressures (LAP) is an important perioperative management tool for maintaining adequate cardiac output. However, incorrect placement of the LAP-monitoring catheter tip often leads to inherent risk. This study aimed to evaluate the length of the LAP cathe...
