Figure 4-7. Aortic Single Lumen Catheter Pullback
Note
The medSim 300B waveform for arterial pressure simulates a measurement
obtained with the single lumen catheter pullback.
The following represents the simulated blood pressure waveforms for single and dual
lumen catheterization in the aorta:
Catheterization Blood Pressure Waveforms
Single Lumen Catheter
Inserted
BP1 = LV Variable
Pulled back BP1 = ART 120/80
Dual Lumen Catheter
Distal lumen (tip) BP1 = LV Variable
Proximal lumen BP2 = ART 120/80
To simulate a single lumen catheter with the lumen in the aorta:
1. Press -AORT from the CATHETERIZATION MENU, and then press
-PLBK.
