EKOS CATHETER

Has anyone had luck connecting a transducer and obtaining any type of pressure on a EKOS catheter? It's a fenestrated catheter  so I am unsure on how a pressure could be obtained with so many holes. Our physicians are adamant that "this always works" yet we all have a hard time getting any pressures.

    Which lumen are you trying to transduce? The only one that would make sense would be the 'coolant' lumen as it is completely primed, it doesn't have the u/s wire through as the central lumen does and it isn't micro-fenestrated like the drug port lumen is.
