17
Q

Wedge Pressure

A

Senses pressure in front of pulmonary artery.

Pressures in Pulmonary venous system and left atrial/ventricle at the end of diastole.

3-4 mmHg lower than PA diastolic pressure.

18
Q

Circle of resuscitation

A

Volume status -> Heart Rate -> SVR (systemic vascular resistance)

19
Q

equation for SVR

A

SVR = ((MAP - CVP) / CO) * 80

20
Q

equation for MAP

A

[(diastolic *2)+systolic)] /3
