Hemodynamic Values Exam Questions and Answers Latest Update Graded A+
Cardiac Output (CO) - Answers The volume of blood pumped by the heart in one minute.
Normal: 4-6L/min
CO = Heart Rate (HR) x Stroke Volume (SV)
Cardiac Index (CI) - Answers The amount of blood pumped by the heart, per minute, per meter square of
body surface area.
Normal CI = 2.2-4 L/min/m2
CI = CO / BSA
Stroke Volume (SV) - Answers The amount of blood pumped by the heart per cardiac cycle. It is
measured in ml/beat.
Normal SV = 60-70 ml/beat
SV = CO / HR
Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) - Answers Average perfusion pressure created by arterial blood pressure
during the cardiac cycle.
Normal 70-100 mmHg
MAP= [(2 x Diastole) + Systole] / 3
Central Venous Pressure (CVP) - Answers CVP describes the pressure of blood in the thoracic vena cava
and right atrium of the heart. It reflects the amount of blood returning to the heart and the ability of the
heart to pump the blood into the arterial system. CVP readings are used to approximate the Right
Ventricular End Diastolic Pressure (RVEDP). The RVEDP assesses right ventricular function and general
fluid status.
Normal CVP = 2-5 mm Hg
Left Atria Pressure (LAP) - Answers Pressure created by the Left side of the heart. When the mitral valve
is open, it reflects the filling pressure of the Left ventricle.
Normal= 5-12 mmHg
Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressure (PAWP) - Answers PAWP pressures are used to approximate LVEDP
(left ventricular end diastolic pressure).
Normal PAWP = 5-12 mm Hg
