Q

CVP

A

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

18
Q

Preload

A

Blood returning to the heart and available for ejection (Ventricle filling)

Inadequate: Tachycardia, dysrhythmias, valvular stenosis, tamponade, hypovolemia, diastolic dysfunction
Tx–volume expanders

Excessive/increased: Bradycardia, tricuspid/mitral valve regurgitation, hypervolemia
Tx–Correct volume overload (diuretics, vasodilators, milrinone, nitroglycerine, hydralazine)

19
Q

Contractility

A

Squeeze of the heart
LV/RV ejection

Inadequate–CAD, ischemia/infarct causing RWA, negative inotropes (BB, CCB)

20
Q

Afterload

A

Pressure in the vasulature the heart must overcome to pump blood out
Measured by SVR and PVR

Increased afterload: systemic/pulm HTN, valvular stenosis

Decreased afterload: vasodilators

TX FOR INCREASED SVR: nitroprusside, carvedilol, labetalol (alpha-beta blockers), CCB, hydralazine, ACEI-ARBs

TX FOR INCREASED PVR: NO, inhaled prostaglandins, PDE-inhibitors, endothelin receptor antag

21
Q
