Radial arterial pressure can significantly underestimate central aortic pressure in the postcardiopulmonary bypass (post-CPB) period. At the study institution, routine monitoring of perioperative arterial pressure in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery is performed with a long radial artery catheter with the distal end positioned in the subclavian artery. In 68 patients presenting for elective cardiac surgery, both a conventional short radial artery catheter and a contralateral long radial artery catheter were placed. Analysis of radial and subclavian arterial pressures post-CPB in the first 47 patients showed average maximum differences of 7 mm Hg systolic and 4 mm Hg mean. In 15% of patients, the differences were clinically significant (greater than 20 mm Hg systolic and/or greater than 14 mm Hg mean). In 28 patients, central aortic pressure was measured post-CPB, and subclavian artery pressure was found to be an excellent estimator of central aortic pressure. There were no significant complications related to using long radial artery catheters in the 68 patients who were followed prospectively. Monitoring subclavian arterial pressure by percutaneous insertion of a long radial artery catheter provides a reliable estimation of central aortic pressure, even in patients with significant radial artery-to-central aortic pressure gradients post-CPB.

D011446 Prospective Studies Observation of a population for a sufficient number of persons over a sufficient number of years to generate incidence or mortality rates subsequent to the selection of the study group. Prospective Study,Studies, Prospective,Study, Prospective
D011884 Radius The outer shorter of the two bones of the FOREARM, lying parallel to the ULNA and partially revolving around it. Radial Tuberosity,Radial Tuberosities,Tuberosities, Radial,Tuberosity, Radial
D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.
