Pulmonary artery catheter monitoring of the right ventricular ejection fraction RVef and of the right ventricular end-diastolic volume EDV however reflects powerful yet underutilized relationships that assess right ventricular performance. Since the cardiac output equals the product of the RVef the EDV and the heart rate one can assess the RVef to EDV relations as direct measures of right ventricular performance. A series of RVef EDV and heart rate combinations can give the same cardiac output Figure 1 monitoring or targeting cardiac output alone ignores this reality. For example in hypovolemia the EDV is low and the RVef is increased whereas in right ventricular failure the opposite is true. Furthermore resuscitation from hypovolemia will increase the EDV and decrease the RVef 2 while reversal of cor pulmonale will decrease the EDV and increase the RVef. No monitoring device other than the pulmonary artery catheter can continually assess these variables. These concepts are often used in the cardiac surgery suite but are rarely codified
