Central Venous Pressure
Venous pressure is a term that represents the average
blood pressure within the venous compartment.
Hypovolemia
Venodilatation
• Eg, septic shock
CVP monitoring
In CVP monitoring, a catheter is inserted
through a vein and advanced until its tip lies in
or near the right atrium
Because no major valves lie at the junction of
the vena cava and right atrium, pressure at
end diastole reflects back to the catheter
CVP monitoring
When connected to a manometer, the catheter
measures central venous pressure (CVP), an index of
right ventricular function
CVP monitoring helps to assess cardiac function, to
evaluate venous return to the heart, and to indirectly
gauge how well the heart is pumping
The phlebostatic axis is the reference point for zeroing
the hemodynamic monitoring device. This reference
point is important because it helps to ensure the
accuracy of the various pressure readings.

PAWP / LVEDP
7 - 9 FR catheter
4 lumens
110-cm long
Polyvinylchloride body
Pressure guidance is used to ascertain the localization of
the PA catheter in the venous circulation and the heart
Upon entry into the right atrium, the central venous pressure
tracing is noted
Higher systolic pressure than
seen in the right atrium,
although the end-diastolic
pressures are equal

PAWP a-c and v waves appear to occur later in the cardiac cycle
compared with CVP trace
PA catheter: Uses
There is no consensus on standards for PA catheter
use

• Unstable arrhythmias
• Anticoagulation therapy
• Bleeding disorder
• Prior pneumonectomy
