way to normalize CO for different body types
Term
Pt with low cardiac output, 4 things to correct it:
preload: pressure on ventricles just as ready to eject, lower elevated preload via diuretics, Nitroglycerin reduces preload via vasodilating pulmonary vasculature
Afterload: work that heart has to overcome in order to push fluid through body, resistance, if this number is high the vents have to work to hard and lowers CO, can give vasodilator to decrease afterload so vent can eject better
Contractility: how hard the vents squeeze, maybe its not squeezing well enough even though preload/afterload are fine. Ischemia and CAD can mess up contracilty , also drugs and hypothyroidism can too. Use inotropic meds to strengthn heart contractions. Contractility is what the SV is involved with, increasing contract, increases SV> increases CO
Heart rate: co= sv xhr, so by increasing hr you can increase CO, this is where the heart failure pts have issues
