The behavior of central venous pressure (CVP) has been examined in 363 cases of acute myocardial infarction. It was found that in uncomplicated hemodynamic states of the patients the average CVP was less than 6 cm H2O. In patients with cardiac failure the CVP ranged from 6 to 15 cm H2O; in patients with cardiogenic shock it exceeded 15 cm H2O. Few exceptions have been observed. Some patients without cardiac failure had high CVP while some others with cardiogenic shock provided low CVP values. In patients with myocardial infarction the CVP may be considered a good diagnostic and prognostic sign for hemodynamic complications.

Abstract

The behavior of central venous pressure (CVP) has been examined in 363 cases of acute myocardial infarction. It was found that in uncomplicated hemodynamic states of the patients the average CVP was less than 6 cm H2O. In patients with cardiac failure the CVP ranged from 6 to 15 cm H2O; in patients with cardiogenic shock it exceeded 15 cm H2O. Few exceptions have been observed. Some patients without cardiac failure had high CVP while some others with cardiogenic shock provided low CVP values. In patients with myocardial infarction the CVP may be considered a good diagnostic and prognostic sign for hemodynamic complications.
