GUH Images in Anaesthesia and ICU:
The tricuspid regurgitation jet velocity shown was used in a critical care patient to estimate RV systolic pressure:
Vol control – tvol 420ml PEEP 10cmH20
Cardiovascular: MAP 67mmHg on Noradrenaline 0.3mcg/kg/min

His TR Vmax suggests his RV systolic pressure is 51mmHg + RA pressure = HIGH
