*** PCWP in Muller's maneuver || Poll ***
Muller's maneuver (forced inspiration with closed mouth) is an excellent way to study heart-lung interactions.
In the experiment below, compare PCWP before and a few seconds into the maneuver (2 blue boxes) and take the poll below 👇

Compared to baseline, estimated LV preload near the end of the maneuver is ...

The results are quite spread out and for good reason!
This is a tough one so I plan to deal with this in multiple discussion threads over the next few days.
We have to start with the basics - defining preload. So here's thread no. 1/n -

Here's part 2A:
**Unique effects of transmural (tm) pressure and intramural (im) pressures**
–Introduction and basic concepts

*Transmural and intramural pressures*
– More on tendencies for pulmonary congestion vs pulmonary edema
