Comparison of estimates of right atrial pressure by physical examination and echocardiography in patients with congestive heart failure and reasons for discrepancies

The American Journal of Cardiology
J H SteinR H Marcus

Abstract

Clinical estimates of right atrial pressure from the jugular venous pulse were accurate when right atrial pressure was normal, but systematically underestimated elevated right atrial pressures. Because the increased distance from the mid-right atrium to the sternal angle is not accounted for, apparently normal right atrial pressure estimates by this technique do not reliably exclude elevated right atrial pressure in patients with congestive heart failure.

Cardiovascular Diseases: Risk Factors

Cardiovascular disease is a significant health concern. Risk factors include hypertension, obesity, dyslipidemia and smoking. Women who are postmenopausal are at an increased risk of heart disease. Here is the latest research for risk factors of cardiovascular disease.
