Q
Central Venous Pressure
A
3-10 mmHg
2
Q
RV
A
End diastolic: 2 mmHg
Systolic: 25 mmHg
3
Q
Pulmonary Artery (from RV to lung)
A
RV is about 25, lung is about 14
Pulmonary Artery should be a mean of 15
Systolic 25 Diastolic 10
4
Q
Pulmonary Wedge/LA
A
6 mmHg
little higher than RA
5
Q
LV
A
Systolic - 100-140
Diastolic - 0-12
6
Q
Aortic Pressure
A
around 95 if blood pressure is 120/80
1/3SP + 2/3DP
(1/3)(120) + (2/3)(80) = 40 + 53 = 93
