CCRN PEDS Cardiovascular Exam Practice Questions and Answers 1. Your pediatric patient has the following parameters HR 80 BP 100/60 SV 40 BSA 0.9 m2 The cardiac index (CI) for this patient is A. 4.4 L/min B. 3.2 L/min/m2 C. 3.5 L/min/m2 D. 3200 mL/m2 - ANSWER-C. The cardiac index for this patient is 3.5. First, you must calculate the cardiac output (HR X SV) or (80 X 40 =3200 = 3.2 L/min). Then, use the following equation: (CI = CO/BSA) or (3.2/0.9 = 3.55 L/min/m2) Copyright © KAY...
