A) Cardiac index (CI) = 4 L/min/m²
B) Mixed venous oxygen content (CO₂) = 10 vol%

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The normal values for the hemodynamic parameters in this question are: Cardiac index (CI)= 2.5-4 L/min/m²,mixed venous oxygen content (CO₂)= 15 vol%,mean arterial pressure (MPAP)= 10-20 mm Hg,and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR)=100-250 dyne × sec × cm⁻⁵.The value that is not within normal limits is the CO₂.
