Pulmonary Artery Catheter:
Waveform
A 3-daypostoperative open-heart surgery patient has an
arterial catheter in the right radial artery for
continuous blood pressure measurements. Because of
retained secretions, the respiratory therapist places
him into a head down position for postural drainage
therapy. The nurse notices that the patient’s blood
pressure is less than before being placed into this new
position. After the patient is returned to the original
position, the blood pressure is the same as it was
originally. How can the therapist explain the blood
pressure changes?
A. There was an air bubble in the arterial catheter
B. There was a clot in the arterial catheter
C. The patient’s body was below the level of the pressure
transducer
D. Postural drainage positions always cause the blood
pressure to decrease

A patient with advanced emphysema is admitted to
the respiratory intensive care unit. He is placed
on a 24% Venturi-type mask and has a
pulmonary artery catheter inserted. His initial
pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) is 300
dynes/sec/cm-5, and the PaO2 is 57 torr. The
physician orders him increased to 28% oxygen.
The resulting PVR is 220 dynes/sec/cm-5, and the
PaO2 is 63 torr. Based on this information, what
would you recommend?
A. Decrease the oxygen to 24%
B. Place the patient on a ventilator
C.Administer a bronchodilator
D.Keep the patient on 28% oxygen

resistance
D.Is hypovolemic

A 40-year old patient receiving mechanical
ventilation has an arterial line in place. It is
noticed that a significant difference exists
between the blood pressure taken by cuff on the
left arm and the blood pressure taken by arterial
line on the right arm. What could explain this
difference?
