Lindsey Jones Hemodynamics Exam
Actual Questions and Answers 2026
If we want to determine the function of the right heart, what
pressures should we look at? -
correct answer ✅CVP(pressure before the heart) and PAP
(pressure after the heart)
If we want to determine the function of the left heart, we would
look at what pressures? -
correct answer ✅PCWP and C.O
If PCWP is high, but CO is low, then we can comfortable say the
problem lies where? -
correct answer ✅in the LEFT heart
CVP: 5 torr
PAP: 20torr
