Hemodynamics Flashcards
CO
4-8 L/min
HR x SV
CI
2-4 L/min based on BSA
SV
50-100 mL
Amount of blood ejected with each beat
Affected by preload, afterload, and contractility
MAP
> 65
CVP
2-8 mmHg
The pressure of blood in the thoracic vena cava, near the right atrium
Reflects the amount of blood returning to the heart (PRELOAD) and the ability of the heart to pump the blood into the arterial system
Pulmonary Artery Pressure (PAP)
20–25 / 8–10 mmHg
PCWP
4-12 mmHg
Indirect estimate of L atrium pressure
L sided PRELOAD
SVR
900-1400 dynes/sec/cm
Pressure the Left ventricle encounters to push blood into the body
LEFT SIDED AFTERLOAD
PVR
150-300 dynes/sec/cm
Pressure the Right ventricle encounters to push blood into the pulmonary arteries
RIGHT SIDED AFTERLOAD
Subclavian venous saturation (ScVO2)
70%
Measured by central line
Mixed venous saturation (SvO2)
60-80%
Measured by Pa catheter
Beta 1 receptors
Located: heart
Agonism: Increases chronotropy (HR) and inotropy (contractility)
Beta 2 receptors
Located: Bronchioles and blood vessels
Agonism: Bronchodilates, vasodilates
Alpha 1 Receptors
Located: Blood vessels
Agonism: vasoconstrict
D1, D2 Receptors
Located: Heart
Agonism: Increase chronotropy and inotropy
