|
0-8 mm Hg end diastolic, 15-30 systolic
|
|
pulmonary artery pressures nl
|
3-12 end diastolic
15-30 end systolic |
|
Wedge pressures nl
a wave v wave mean |
a wave 3-15 mm Hg
V wave 3-12 mean 5-12 mm Hg |
|
what is LAP or left atrial pressure a reflection of?
|
LVEDP, in pt w nl mitral valve
LVEDP is a reflection of LV preload |
|
How is cardiac output measured?
|
injecting a known temperature and known volume of fluid (D5W)prox to tip of PA catheter, and then measuring temp
|
|
Mixed venous oyxgen sat
SVO2 what is normal level? |
78%
|
|
systemic venous resistance
SVR |
SVR=(MAP -CVP)80/CO
reflects vascular tone: constricted vs dilated |
|
what is the hallmark of hypovolemia?
|
low wedge pressure
low LV preload->low CO->high SVR tx: fluids |
|
hallmark of cardiogenic shock
|
low CO (pump not working)-> high wedge pressure(pump backs up)-> increased SVR
|
|
Hallmark of distributive shock
|
loss of SVR-> initially low wedge pressure->initally high CO (warm septic shock)-> which becomes low w shock progression
|
|
treatment of disstributive shock
|
1. remove source
2. fluids 3. vasopressors (to increase SVR) |
|
hallmark of obstructive shock
|
low filling pressure-> low wedge pressure-> low CO-> high SVR
tx: resolve obstructive problem and give fluids |
|
examples obstructive shock
|
pulmonary embolus, massive or tension PTX
|
|
examples distributive shock
|
sepsis, spinal and anaphylactic shock--total loss of SVR
|
|
