Question

If the mean arterial pressure is 90 mm Hg, the right atrial pressure is 5 mm Hg, and the cardiac output is 6 lt/min, what is the pressure (peripheral) resistance? If the mean pressures of the pulmonary artery and left atrium are 15 and 6 mm Hg, respectively, what is the pulmonary system resistance?

Step 1

We can use the formula: Pressure resistance = (Mean arterial pressure - Right atrial pressure) / Cardiac output Plugging in the given values: Pressure resistance = (90 mm Hg - 5 mm Hg) / 6 lt/min Pressure resistance = 85 mm Hg / 6 lt/min Pressure resistance ≈ Show more…
