A technique for the insertion of Telfon catheters into the pulmonary artery and left atrium is described. The method is especially useful for continous monitoring of pulmonary artery and left atrial pressures and sampling of mixed venous and arterial blood after open or closed heart surgery. No cpmplication associated with this technique have occurred in more than 100 clinical cases.
