Hard Physiological Adaptation Hemodynamics

A 52-year-old female patient is admitted to the telemetry unit with a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. The healthcare team is focused on the hemodynamic assessment of this patient due to her presenting symptoms of chest pain, diaphoresis, and shortness of breath. As a nurse, understanding the parameters that influence hemodynamic stability is crucial in providing optimal care.

Which of the following parameters should the nurse closely monitor to assess the patient's hemodynamic status effectively? Select all that apply.

Select all that apply:

Central venous pressure (CVP)

Pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP)

Cardiac output (CO)

Mean arterial pressure (MAP)

Systemic vascular resistance (SVR)

Heart rate (HR)
