31 Ιαν 2024 · Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) is the resistance against blood flow from the 4 pulmonary veins of the lung to the left atrium. It is most commonly modeled using a modification of Ohm’s law (see Image. Pulmonary Vascular Resistance Derived from Ohm's Law).
Use this PVR calculator to determine the patient's pulmonary vascular resistance. What is PVR? Well, PVR helps to estimate the impact of pulmonary hypertension on heart function and determine the reason for any dysregulation.
The PVR formula is: PVR measured in dynes-sec/cm 5 = 80 x (Mean Pulmonary Arterial Pressure in mmHg – Left Atrial Pressure in mmHg) / Pulmonary Flow in L/min. There is also a simplified formula that provides PVR in mmHg-min/L:

Pulmonary vascular resistance. = [MPAP – MPAWP] / C.O. = (18 – 8) / 5. = 2 Wood unit. Normal PVR is usually less than 2 Wood units (between 30 and 180 dynes/sec/cm−5) Normal mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) is 14±3 mmHg with an upper limit of 20 mmHg.
Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) also depends on the lung volume, and PVR is lowest at the functional residual capacity (FRC). The highly compliant nature of the pulmonary circulation means that the degree of lung distention has a large effect on PVR.
2 Σεπ 2021 · Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) is a variable that reflects the physical size (diameter and length) of the vascular tree at any moment in time. If PVR is increased, then it will take more energy for the right ventricle to pump the venous return through the lungs.
