Pulmonary artery catheter catheter for insertion into a pulmonary artery

Pulmonary artery catheterization (PAC), or right heart catheterization, is the insertion of a catheter into a pulmonary artery. Its purpose is diagnostic; it is used to detect heart failure or sepsis, monitor therapy, and evaluate the effects of drugs. The pulmonary artery catheter allows direct, simultaneous measurement of pressures in the right atrium, right ventricle, pulmonary artery, and the filling pressure of the left atrium. The pulmonary artery catheter is frequently referred to as a Swan-Ganz catheter, in honor of its inventors Jeremy Swan and William Ganz, from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

H.J.C. "Jeremy" Swan was an Irish cardiologist, originally from Sligo, who co-invented the Swan-Ganz catheter with William Ganz at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in 1970.
