Exam 2 - hemodynamics Flashcards
what are the 4 things hemodynamic monitoring measures
HR
blood flow
O2 delivery
tissue perfusion
how to measure CO
HR x SV
what is a normal CO
4-8 L/min
what is ejection fraction (EF)
% of blood ejected with each beat
what is a normal EF
60-70%
an EF below __% is indicative of HF
40%
what is stroke volume (SV)
volume of blood being ejected with each beat
what are some reasons for an elevated SV
bradycardia
vasoconstriction with shock, HTN
positive inotropic meds (dopamine)
L ventricular HF
what are some reasons for a decrease in SV
vasodilation (shock, drugs)
decreased afterload
tachy dysrhythmmias
cardiac tamponade
how to measure cardiac index (CI)
CO divided by BSA
what is systemic vascular resistance
peripheral vascular resistance
diameter of blood vessels
arterial BP calculation
CO x SVR
