Stroke Volume (SV)
• SV is the volume of blood ejected by the
ventricles with each contraction
• Preload, afterload, and myocardial
contractility are major determinants of SV

Stroke Volume (SV)
• SV is derived by dividing the cardiac
output (CO) by the heart rate

Stroke Volume (SV)
• For example, if an individual has a
cardiac output of 4.5 L/min (4500
mL/min) and a heart rate of 75 beats/min,
the stroke volume would be calculated as
follows:

Stroke Volume Index (SVI)
• SVI is derived by dividing the SV by the
body surface area (BSA)

Stroke Volume (SVI)
• For example, if a patient has a stroke
volume of 60 mL and a body surface area
of 2 m2, the SVI would be determined as
follows:

Stroke Volume (SVI)
• Assuming the heart rate remains the
same, as the SVI increases or
decreases, the CI also increases or
decreases.
• The SVI reflects:
1. Contractility of the heart
2. Overall blood volume status
3. Amount of venous return
• See Table 15-3

Cardiac Index (CI)
• CI is calculated by dividing the CO by the
body’s surface area (BSA)

Cardiac Index (CI)
• For example, if a patient has a cardiac
output of 5 L/min and a body surface
area of 2 m2, the cardiac index is
computed as follows:
• See Table 15-3 for a list of factors that increase and decrease the cardiac index

Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index (RVSWI)
• Measures amount of work required by
right ventricle to pump blood
• Reflects the contractility of right ventricle
• Increases in afterload causes RVSWI to
increase, until plateau is reached

Thomson Delmar Learning
Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index (RVSWI)
• Derived from the following formula:

Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index (RVSWI)
• For example, if a patient has an SVI of
35 mL, a PA of 20 mm Hg, and a CVP
of 5 mm Hg, the patient’s RVSWI is
calculated as follows: (next slide)

Left Ventricular Stroke Work Index (LVSWI)
• Measures amount of work required by left
ventricle to pump blood
• Reflects contractility of the left ventricle
• Increases in afterload causes the LVSWI
to increase, until plateau is reached

Thomson Delmar Learning
Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index (RVSWI)
• The LVSWI is derived from the following
formula:

Left Ventricular Stroke Work Index (LVSWI)
• For example, if a patient has an SVI of 30
mL, an MAP of 100 mm Hg, and a PCWP
of 5 mm Hg, then:

Vascular Resistance
• As blood flows through the pulmonary
and then the systemic vascular system
there is resistance to flow.
– Pulmonary system is a low resistance system
– Systemic vascular system is a high resistance
system

Pulmonary Vascular Resistance (PVR)
• PVR measurement reflects afterload of
right ventricle.
• It is calculated by the following formula:

• For example, to determine the PVR
of a patient who has a PA of 15 mm Hg,
a PCWP of 5 L/min:
