NORMAL VALUES FOR VASCULAR RESISTANCE
Systemic vascular resistance
Systemic vascular resistance index
Pulmonary vascular resistance
Pulmonary vascular resistance index
1 170 ± 270 dynes-sec-cm(-5)
2 130 ± 450 dynes-sec-cm(-5) ▪ M2
67 ± 30 dynes-sec-cm(-5)
123 ± 54 dynes-sec-cm(-5) ▪ M2
Note: 80 dynes-sec-cm(-5) = 1 Woods units
Values are expressed as mean ± standard deviation and are derived from 37 subjects
without demonstrable cardiovascular disease (17 males, 20 females, age 47 ± 9 years)
who underwent diagnostic cardiac catheterization at the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital
between July 1, 1975, and June 30, 1978.
(from Grossman’s Cardiac Catheterization, Angiography, and Intervention, 6th edition, p.
