Holtz, BS, EMT-P, RCIS In practice, electrocardiography is a very important diagnostic component that involves an electronic mapping how well the heart generates and conducts electrical impulses and a monitoring of changes in its ability to do so.
It represents impedance to ventricular ejection. It is influenced by several factors including the radius of the blood vessels, blood viscosity, and mean arterial pressures (MAP). Left ventricular afterload is quantified with systemic vascular resistance (SVR), and right ventricular afterload is quantified with pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). Vascular resistance is calculated by dividing the pressure drop through of a vascular bed by the cardiac output for that vascular bed. SVR (mmHg/L/min) [(MAP right atrial pressure)/systemic cardiac output] PVR (mmHg/L/min) [(mean pulmonary artery pressure pulmonary capillary wedge pressure)/pulmonary cardiac output] This results in vascular resistance being expressed in mmHg/L/min, called Wood or Hybrid units.
6 Treatment is directed at correcting the underlying cause of the left heart failure. Patients may also benefit from diuretics, ace inhibitors, beta blockers, oxygen, and digitalis. Some cardiac or pulmonary disease processes can decrease the right heart’s ability to deliver the appropriate cardiac output to the pulmonary and systemic circulatory systems. When this happens, patients exhibit signs and symptoms of decreased pulmonary and systemic perfusion including tachypnea, hypoxemia, weakness, exercise intolerance, confusion, and renal insufficiency.
