CVP is
central venous pressure
CVP is also known as
right atrial pressure
during diastolic, cvp reflects the
right ventricle end diastolic pressure
normal ranges for cvp
1-6 mmHg
or
1.4-8 cmh20
cvp can be measured using a
central line
volume of blood in rt vent at end of diastole
preload
low cvp caused from inadequate venous return due to low circulating blood volume
hemorrhage
sepsis
anaphylactic shock / vasodilation
high cvp =
poor contractility
+ pressure mech vent, peep or cpap inc intrathoracis pressure
right vent pressure is only measured during insertion of the
swan-ganz catheter
PAP=
pulm artery pressure
PAP measures pressure of blood in the
pulm artery
PAP affects the
afterload pressure of the right ventricle
PAP normal ranges / systolic
15-25 mmHg
PAP normal ranges / diastolic
8-12 mmHg due to closure of the valve
factors of PAP
pulm bloodflow
pulm vascular resistance
medication for a PAP
flolan
ventavis
no
high pap is caused by
pulm emboli or obs of the pulm veins
PCWP
pulm capillary wedge pressure
PCWP is coming from your
left side of heart
when the balloon of a swan cath is inflated, the high pressure generated by the rt ven are
blocked
normal ranges PCWP
5-15 mmHg
elevated PAP=
asthma
allergic reactions
ards
pulm emboli
atelectasis
pneumothorax
pneumonia
pos press vent
peep or cpap
multilumen, ballood tipped, pulm arterial catheter
swan ganz catheter
purpose of swan ganz
monitor cvp through proximal lumen
administer iv fluid
draw blood
monitor PAP w/ balloon deflated
monitor PCWP with ballod inflated
body temp
CO
insertion sites of swan ganz
jugular vein
subclavian vein
antecubital vein
femoral vein
amout of blood pumped from the left ven in 1 minute
cardiac output
normal ranges of cardiac output
4-8 lpm
amt of blood pumped from the left ven in a single beat
stroke vol
normal ranges of stroke vol
60-130 ml/beat
