Key result
A novel combined-catheter accurately monitored atrial pressures (R=0.98 for LAP) and reduced catheter displacement compared to the traditional method (5 vs 12 cases).
Why the study?
Does a novel combined-catheter accurately and safely monitor left and right atrial pressures compared to traditional methods in pediatric patients undergoing open-heart surgery?

Ding et al. (2016) conducted an observational in Pediatric patients undergoing open-heart surgery (n=113). Novel combined-catheter vs. Traditional triple-lumen catheter plus single-lumen catheter was evaluated on Left atrial pressure-monitoring catheter displacement into the right atrium. A novel combined-catheter accurately monitored atrial pressures (R=0.98 for LAP) and reduced catheter displacement compared to the traditional method (5 vs 12 cases).
