RCIS Board Exam Study notes based on
Glowacki and Sommers MP3 (2022/2023) 100%
Pass
1). What is the pressure as blood enters the right atrium?
Ans: 5mmHg
2). What organ system in the body acts on the blood in the vessels to make a pressure of
5mmhg?
Ans: Deep skeletal muscle pump system
3). What pressure is the blood under as it goes from the ra through the tricuspid valve?
Ans: 5mmHg
4). The bigger the diameter of the valve the __________ pressure is needed to move blood
across it.
Ans: Less
5). The smaller the diameter of the valve the _________ pressure is needed to move blood
across it.
Ans: more
6). What is the largest valve in the heart?
Ans: tricuspid valve
7). What is the normal right ventricular systolic pressure?
Ans: 25mmHg
8). How much smaller is the pulmonic valve than the tricuspid valve?
PaperStoc.com Page 1 of 66
, Ans: 5x smaller. It takes 5mmHg to get across the tricuspid valve and 25mmHg to get
across the pulmonic valve.
9). Which valve has a bigger diameter, the tricuspid or pulmonic valve?
Ans: Tricuspid
10). Which valve requires more pressure to move across it, the tricuspid or the pulmonic?
Ans: pulmonic
11). Valve a requires 5mmhg to move blood and valve b requires 30mmhg. which valve has a
smaller diameter?
Ans: Valve B
12). What is the right ventricular diastolic pressure?
Ans: 5mmHg
13). What is the rv edp?
Ans: 5mmHg
14). Why is the rv edp not zero?
Ans: Because some blood is not ejected out. The heart is not a perfectly efficient
pump.
15). What is a normal rv ejection fraction?
Ans: 55-60%
16). What is edp?
Ans: End Diastolic Pressure. An efficient heart has an ejection fraction of 55-60%, this
leftover blood in the ventricle is under a resting (diastolic) pressure.
17). What is a normal diastolic pressure in the pulmonary artery?
PaperStoc.com Page 2 of 66
, Ans: 7-12mmHg
18). What is the normal left atrial pressure?
Ans: 7-12mmHg
19). What is the normal o2 concentration of a rbc leaving the lungs?
Ans: 98%
20). What is the normal o2 concentration of a rbc when it returns to the ra?
Ans: 70%
21). How much o2 is a rbc able to give up to the organs?
Ans: 30% of its O2
22). True/false: if someone has a higher edp there is less damage to the heart.
Ans: False, the higher the EDP the more damage. More blood is being left and not
pumped out.
23). What is a normal wedge pressure?
Ans: 7-12mmHg
24). If the rbcs go through the lungs faster than 7-12mmhg what happens?
Ans: The RBCs have less time to get the O2 needed to fill them up fully.
25). True or false: the higher the wedge pressure the faster the rbcs go through the lungs and
the less o2 they are able to acquire.
Ans: True.
PaperStoc.com Page 3 of 66
, 26). Copd is elevated wedge pressure. true or false
Ans: True. 30-40mmHg is not unusual. RBCs move so fast that they come out of the
lungs with much less than 98% O2.
27). Copd o2 sats can be in the low to mid 80's. true or false
Ans: True.
28). Why is the wedge pressure indicative of the la pressure?
Ans: Because there are no valves in between, just the lung system. Since no valves
the pressure in the LA should be the same. When the leaflets open up on the mitral valve
it is possible to see into the left ventricle.
29). When the mitral valve leaflets open up and the wedge catheter is able to see into the lv
what is the pressure that it sees?
Ans: LV EDP
30). What is a normal lv edp?
Ans: 7-12mmHg
31). If the lv edp goes up and the la pressure goes up, what other pressure would you expect to
rise?
Ans: The wedge pressure
32). What would increase your right atrial pressure?
Ans: tricuspid stenosis
33). Where would you see a high ra pressure demonstrated on a patient?
Ans: Jugular vein distention
