Q
  • What are the steps to measure JVP?
A
    1. Have the patient lay down; rest head on on pillow to realx SCM muscles
    1. Raise the exam table to 30 degrees and turn the patients head slightly away from the side you are inspecting.
    1. Use tangential lightening and ID external jugular vein – then find internal pulsations.
    1. Raise or lower the bed until you can see pulses of the IJV in the lower 1/2 of the neck.
    1. focus on the RIVJ, look for pulsations in the suprasternal notch, between attachments of the SCM or posterior to SCM.
    1. ID the highest point of pulsation of R JV, make a right angle from the point and the sternal angle. Measure vertical distance + 5cm = sum is the JVP.
