Case Report: Correlation between pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and left-ventricular diastolic pressure during treatment with veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

BackgroundPulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) is often used as a surrogate for left-ventricular end-diastolic pressure in patients (LVEDP) who are on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-A ECMO) support for cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest. However, the correlation between...
