Calculate the RF% ( regurgitate fraction ) Given LVMF is 6.6 Liters / min. TD ( Thermodilution ) CO is 4.56 Liters / min.
LVMF - CO from Fick or TD
Divided by LVMF
Step 1: 6.6 Lt - 4.56 Lt = 2.04 Lts
Step 2: 2.04/6.6 = .309
Step 3: .309 x 100 = 30.9%
Cardiac Index
Formula for CI is …
CI = CO / BSA
Cardiac output divided by the Body
Surface Area
Normal values = 2.5 - 4.0 l/min/meter
squared
What is BSA or Body Surface Area
BSA = the total suface area of the human body. The BSA is used in many measurments in medicine, including the calculation of drug dosages and the amount of fluids to be administered IV.
Angiographic Cardiac output or
LVMF ( left Ventricular minute flow)
What is the formula for LVMF?
LVMF
LV End Diastolic volume - LV End Systolic Volume x Heart Rate
LVEDV - LVEST x HR
Calculate the LVMF or Angiographic Cardiac output
Given: LVEDV = 140 ml LVESV = 40ml HR = 66 bpm
LVMF = LVEDV - LVESV x HR
Step1 : 140 ml - 40 ml = 100 ml
Step2: 100 ml x 66 bpm = 6600ml
answer : LVMF = 6600 mi / min
6.6 Liters / min
RF ( Regurgitation Fraction) Definition
The ratio of Regurg to the LV total flow. This is the most accurate form of cardiac output for patients with valvular regurg.
Calculate the Angiographic SV
Given:
* EDV = 140 ml
* ESV = 40 ml
Formula:
EDV - ESV
140 ml - 40 ml = 100 ml
What is the average SV in Adults?
70ml
range is 60 - 130 ml
Given:
CO 5 liters / min
Heart rate 80
Calculate the SV
Formula: SV = CO in ml/hr Step1 : change 5 liters to ml = 5000ml Step2 : Divide by heart rate of 80 5000 / 80 = 62.5 or 63 ml/min.
Stroke Volume SV =
SV = CO in ml’s
Divided by HR
Normal Range = 60 - 130 ml
What is the Formula for MAP ( Mean Arterial Pressure)
Systolic BP = ( 2 x Diastolic ) divided by 3.
The patient has a BP of 140 / 90
Calculate the MAP
STEP1 : 140 + 2 x 90 = 320
Step2 : 320 / 3 = 106.6
answer : 107 mm/hg
PVR
( Pulmonary Vascular Resistance)
Formula
(MEAN PA) - (Mean PCW)
divided by CO
Given: PA = 25/10/15 PCW = 9/6/6 CO = 6.8
(15-5)/6 = 1.3 HRU’s
(Hybrid or Wood Units)
1.3 x 80 = 104 dynes/sec/cm - 5 ARU’s
Pulse Pressure Formula
AO systolic - AO Diastolic
Given: BP = 120/80
120 - 80 = 40
40 mmHg
Calculate the Ejection Fraction
Given:
EDV 130
ESV 70
Formula:
SV (Stoke Volume)/ EDV
130 - 70/130 = .46
.46 or 46%
