Venous Return and Central Venous Pressure — Flashcards

In abdominal compartment syndrome, venous return _____

x descent on JVP: Corresponds to the _____ as the ventricular systole pulls the tricuspid valve.

An increased blood volume (or venous tone) causes the cardiac output to _____ and right atrial pressure to increase

An increase in mean systemic pressure is reflected in a shift of the _____ function curve to the right

'c' waves are produced by bulging of the tricuspid valve into the right atrium during the _____ of the right ventricle.

A decreased blood volume (or venous tone) causes the cardiac output to _____ and right atrial pressure to decrease

The image shows a _____ pulse waveform.

Hint: type of pulse

Does the following cardiac/vascular function graph reflect a patient with chronic anemia or anaphylaxis? _____

The "blip" in the arterial pressure curve, called the _____, is produced when the aortic valve closes
