Cardiac power output
Strongest hemodynamic predictor of mortality in cardiogenic shock.
Inputs
0 of 2mmHg
L/min
When to use
- Cardiogenic shock assessment.
Pearls and pitfalls
- Below 0.6 W is associated with high mortality; normal resting about 1 W.
Why use
Combines pressure and flow.
CPO (W) = MAP × cardiac output ÷ 451
