title: [Application of two dilution techniques using Swan-Ganz-REF and PICCO-Plus technologies to the evaluation of systemic and pulmonary circulation].
abstract: The paper considers two thermal dilution methods for monitoring central and pulmonary hemodynamics, such as pulmonary thermal dilution (Swan-Ganz-REF) and transpulmonary thermal dilution (PICCO-Plus technology) in the context of their invasiveness, informative value, and the easiness-to-use in high-risk patients during thoracotomic interventions. They have been comparatively analyzed. The limitations of and contraindications to their use have been systematized. It has been found that these methods are not only interchangeable, but they also complement each other. Concurrent application of these methods may be recommended in high-risk patients during traumatic thoracotomic interventions.
