Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the hemodynamic parameter, that is, the pulmonary vascular resistance with the most closely related normal range from the options given below.
a) 4-8 L/min
b) 800-1500 dynes
c) 60-130 mL
d) 2-8 mm Hg
e) 20-120 dynes
f) 9-18 mm Hg
g) 30-65 mL/beat/m2
h) 80 mm Hg

l) 7-12 g m/m2
Introduction:
Vascular resistance is the resistance required by the blood to flow through the circulatory system. There are two types of vascular resistances- total peripheral resistance and pulmonary vascular resistance. The pulmonary vascular resistance can be measured in dynes
