A schematic shows a multi-lumen, balloon-tipped pulmonary artery catheter used in cardiology and critical care to monitor hemodynamics. The device (type: intravascular catheter; abbreviation PAC) advances via central veins through the right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) into the pulmonary artery, with an inflatable distal balloon and separate proximal and distal ports. Within the cardiovascular system hierarchy, it lies inside the heart and pulmonary circulation. It enables measurement of pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), and thermodilution cardiac output (CO).
