The purpose of this paper is to review the aspects concerning the invasive hemodynamic monitoring of the Swan-Ganz catheter. This routine, at the bedside, will be analysed regarding its indications, its insertion techniques, the checking of this position
¾ through the surveillance of the pressure waves and the pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, and the thorax radiography ¾ and its steps for the hemodynamic measurements, examining the main error factors that can be perpetrated, and the possible complications succeeding that procedure.
