What is the oxygen extraction ratio?

Case Study: Mr. Blue had a blood pressure of 180/100 mm Hg. His heart rate was 80 BPM. Per pulmonary artery catheter (Swan-Ganz), CVP pressure was 12 mm Hg, PAP 30/22 mm Hg, PAOP 8 mm Hg. Cardiac output 6 lpm Calculate the following:   Pulse Pressure: Stroke Volume: MAP: MPAP: SVR: PVR: Can you provide a possible diagnosis?  

Monitoring systems for cardiovascular pressures include strain gauge transducers that must be calibrated in the physiologic monitoring range. In order to zero the transducer appropriately, the transducer must be at the:

The closing of the pulmonic valve:

Calculate the mean pulmonary artery pressure, given a PA pressure of 25/10 mmHg.

The normal value for stroke volume is:
