Hemodyamic Values
PVR
20-120 resistance needed to be overcome in order to push blood through the pulmonary valve and out into the pulmonary artery
SVR
770-1500 resistance needed to be overcome in order to push blood through the aortic valve and out into the aorta generally as SVR increases CO falls
SV
Amount of blood ejected from the ventricle with each contraction 60-130mL per contraction
CI
More specific measurement than CO as it takes into account the individuals actual body size 2.5-4.2L/min/m2
CVP/RAP
Pressure created by volume of blood in right heart at end-diastole Tells fluid balance and responsiveness to fluid administration, R preload 2-6
PAOP/PAWP
Pressure created by volume of blood in the left heart at end diastole L preload 8-12 mmHg
CO
SV x HR Amount of blood pumped out by a ventricle every minute 4-8L/min
