A novel method for transpulmonary pressure estimation using fluctuation of central venous pressure

Determination of Central Venous Pressure from Intraocular Pressure

Background: In many clinical situations, knowledge of central venous pressure (CVP) is important.  Measurement of CVP is not always possible. Objective: To determine if intraocular pressure (IOP) can be used as an estimate for CVP. Methods: IOP and CVP were measured concurrently in 30 candidates of coronary artery bypass graft surgery.  Those with carotid artery or jugular venous diseases as we...

measurement of anterior–posterior diameter of ivc by ultrasonography: a non invasive method for estimation of central venous pressure.

introduction:the assessment of intravascular volume in severely traumatized patients or patients admitted in icu is very essential. at present the accurate method for estimating the intravascular volume requirement is by measuring the cvp which is an invasive method. the measurement of ivc diameter by ultrasound has been suggested as an easily available and simple method for measuring the intra...

peripheral venous pressure as a predictor of central venous pressure in continuous monitoring in children

A comparison of oesophageal and central venous pressures in the measurement of transpulmonary pressure change.

Oesophageal (oes) and central venous pressure (CVP) were compared as indices of transpulmonary pressure change (deltap). The mean increase of deltaPoes over deltapCVP was 2.8 cm H2O. The size and variability of the increase were similar to the expected difference between oesophageal and pleural pressure fluctuations occurring in the supine patient. Central venous pressure may be more accurate a...
