Normal Rv Pressure Tracing

Wave 9 is this a 1 cvp 2 pa 3 pcwp 4 rv tracing.

Normal rv pressure tracing.

Rv systolic pressure is measured at the peak pressure of the ejection phase. Higher rv pressure in pulmonary hypertension pulmonic valve stenosis significant asd or vsd pulmonary embolism in acute pulmonary.

During most of the cardiac cycle ventricular pressure is less than the pressure in the aorta but during systole the ventricular pressure rapidly increases and the two pressures become equal to each other represented by the junction of the blue and red lines on the diagram on this page the. Interpretation wave 8 rv high systole and diastole with a faint dicrotic notch are visible but all the pressures are higher than normal. This pressure waveform looks similar to the rv except the diastolic will be a bit higher. Normal rv pressure 25 4 mmhg when there are no abnormalities in the right heart.

A sharp upstroke is seen on the pressure tracing which reflects ejection of blood.
