The following hemodynamic measurements were obtained from a patient in the intensive care unit: pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) = 67/25 mm Hg, pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) = 18 mm Hg,
blood pressure (BP) = 100/50 mm Hg, central venous pressure (CVP) = 17 mm Hg, cardiac out-put (C.O.) = 5.7 L/min, and heart rate (HR) = 75 beats/min.
