Wedge pulmonary angiography was done in 11 patients with acute respiratory failure, to assess the accuracy of pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (WP) as an estimation of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). The pulmonary artery (PA) catheter tip was placed into a dependent position in the lungs. Although the pulmonary vein was not visualized in 7 of 11 patients, in no case was there a significant difference between WP and LVEDP. When WP is no greater than 15 mm Hg, wedge pulmonary angiography does not reflect the accuracy of WP; however, left ventricular filling pressure can be accurately estimated by WP in most of these patients.
