Initiate Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressure (PAWP)
Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressure (PAWP) is a pressure measurement derived
from a PA catheter when the PA distal balloon is inflated and the catheter
advances and occludes a distal pulmonary artery. PAWP pressure is a reflection
of the pressure in the left ventricle at end-diastole.
To initiate a PAWP measurement on the Passport 8 or Passport 12 bedside
