Normal pressure range (in mmHg) [5] Central venous pressure: 3–8 Right ventricular pressure: systolic: 15–30 diastolic: 3–8 Pulmonary artery pressure: systolic: 15–30 diastolic: 4–12 Pulmonary vein/ Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. 2–15 Left ventricular pressure: systolic: 100–140 diastolic: 3–12
Normal pressure range (in mmHg) [36] Central venous pressure: 3–8 Right ventricular pressure: systolic: 15–30 diastolic: 3–8 Pulmonary artery pressure: systolic: 15–30 diastolic: 4–12 Pulmonary vein/ Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. 2–15 Left ventricular pressure: systolic: 100–140 diastolic: 3–12
The pressures where there is a steep relationship lie within the normal range of right atrial pressure (RAP) found in the healthy human during life. This range is about -1 to +2 mmHg . The higher pressures normally occur only in disease , in conditions such as heart failure , where the heart is unable to pump forward all the blood returning to ...
SVR = systemic vascular resistance (mmHg/L/min) MAP = mean arterial pressure (mmHg) CVP = central venous pressure (mmHg) CO = cardiac output (L/min) [27] To get this in Wood units the answer is multiplied by 80. Normal systemic vascular resistance is between 900 and 1440 dynes/sec/cm−5. [28]
"Your blood pressure is supposed to be under 140 over 90, optimally closer to 120 over 80."
Normal pressure range (in mmHg) [4] Central venous pressure: 3–8 Right ventricular pressure: systolic: 15–30 diastolic: 3–8 Pulmonary artery pressure: systolic: 15–30 diastolic: 4–12 Pulmonary vein/ Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. 2–15 Left ventricular pressure: systolic: 100–140 diastolic: 3–12
As an example: if systolic blood pressure = 120 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure = 80 mmHg, right atrial mean pressure = 3 mmHg and cardiac output = 5 L/min, Then mean arterial pressure = 2 x diastolic pressure + systolic pressure/3 = 93.3 mmHg, and SVR = (93 - 3) / 5 = 18 Wood units, or equivalently 1440 dyn·s/cm 5.
Note that, for cardiac function curve, "central venous pressure" is the independent variable and "systemic flow" is the dependent variable; for vascular function curve, the opposite is true. Venous return curves showing the normal curve when the mean systemic filling pressure (Psf) is 7 mm Hg and the effect of altering the Psf to 3.5, 7, or 14 ...
