Catheters, Cardiac, Flotation Balloon, Pulmonary Artery

Definition : Flotation balloon cardiac catheters designed to be wedged into a pulmonary artery branch. These catheters usually consist of a multilumen, soft, flexible body and a balloon tip that is inflated when the distal tip is in a thoracic vein, so the blood flow carries it into the right atrium, through the tricuspid valve and the right ventricle, into the pulmonary artery, and into a pulmonary artery branch; they typically also include a thermistor. Pulmonary artery catheters are used to measure right atrial, pulmonary arterial, and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures, to monitor pulmonary artery temperature, to withdraw blood samples from the atrium and pulmonary artery, to administer drugs, and to infuse thermal indication solutions for cardiac output measurement using the thermodilution method.

Information on how to use Search

There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.

Boolean Operators
You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.

AND
example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example: default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.

OR
example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.

NOT
example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.

Wildcard/Prefix queries
You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.
