Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies demonstrated no improved survival in patients with pulmonary artery catheter placement. However, no consistent conclusions have been drawn regarding the impact of pulmonary artery catheter in critically ill patients with heart disease. This study aimed to investigate the association of early pulmonary artery catheter use with 28-day mortality in that population. METHODS The Multiparameter Intelligent Monitoring in Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database, a single-center critical care database, was employed to investigate this issue. This study enrolled a total of 11,887 critically ill patients with cardiac disease with or without pulmonary artery catheter insertion. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality. The multivariate regression was modeled to examine the association between pulmonary artery catheter and outcomes. Additionally, we examined the effect modification by cardiac surgeries. Propensity score matching was conducted to validate our findings. RESULTS No improvement in 28-day mortality was observed among the pulmonary artery catheter group compared to the non-pulmonary artery catheter group (odds ratio 95% confidence interval: 1.18 [1.00-1.38], P = .049). When stratified by cardiac surgeries, the results were consistent. The patients in the pulmonary artery catheter group had fewer ventilation-free days and vasopressor-free days than those in the nonpulmonary artery catheter group after surgery stratification. In the surgical patients, pulmonary artery catheter insertion was not associated with the occurrence of acute kidney injury, and it was associated with a higher daily fluid input (mean difference 95% confidence interval: 0.13 [0.05-0.20], P = .001). In nonsurgical patients, the pulmonary artery catheter group had a higher risk of acute kidney injury occurrence (odds ratio 95% confidence interval: 1.94 [1.32-2.84], P = .001). CONCLUSION Early pulmonary artery catheter placement is not associated with survival benefits in critically ill patients with cardiac diseases, either in surgical or nonsurgical patients.
