ABSTRACT
Left ventricular catheterization in mice allows for in-depth assessment of myocardial function in healthy and diseased animals with the advent of pressure volume loop recordings greatly enhancing the technique. While a powerful tool, proper execution of the procedure is paramount to ensure reproducibility and reliability of the results obtained. Here, we describe the technique of left ventricular catheterization using the Scisense conductance catheter system by Transonic; however, the basic method applies to all murine catheter systems. We furthermore indicate possible pitfalls during the procedure and how to avoid them.
