International Conference on

Cardiovascular hemodynamics assessment in children

Samah Alasrawi

Al Jalila Children`s Hospital, UAE

Objectives:

To know how we can assist the cardiac

hemodynamics, What we measure: Intra cardiac

pressures.

What we calculate: Cardiac output; Qp (pulmonary

blood flow); Qs (systemic blood flow); PVR (Pulmonary

vascular resistance); SVR (systemic vascular

resistance); Ejection Fraction; RVSP (Right ventricle

systolic pressure ); PAP (Pulmonary artery pressure;

Obtaining accurate hemodynamics requires careful

attention to detail; Calculation of cardiac output has

many potential sources of error; Limit assumptions

as much as possible; Valuable information about

disease states can be obtained with basic diagnostic

catheterization and good Echo.
