Question

A patient with a blood pressure of 120/75, a pulse rate of 40 beats/minute, a stroke volume of 70 ml/beat, and a respiratory rate of 25 breaths/minute will have a cardiac output of.

Answer 1

A patient with these features has a cardiac output of 2,800 mL/minute.  Cardiac output can be calculated by using oxygen consumption and oxygen level in the blood.

What is cardiac output?

The cardiac output refers to the rate at which blood cells are pumped by the heart to the rest of the body.

The cardiac output can be calculated as oxygen consumption divided by oxygen concentration in arteries multiplied by the oxygen level in venous blood.

This measure (cardiac output) is fundamental to calculate the blood pumped by the hearth.
