Systemic Vascular Resistance (SVR)

Calculate systemic vascular resistance using SVR = (MAP − CVP) × 80 / CO to assess afterload, guide vasopressor/vasodilator therapy, and differentiate shock states.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate systemic vascular resistance using SVR = (MAP − CVP) × 80 / CO to assess afterload, guide vasopressor/vasodilator therapy, and differentiate shock states

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • SVR = × 80 / CO — The svr = × 80 / co recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the svr result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the SVR = × 80 / CO for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate systemic vascular resistance using SVR = (MAP − CVP) × 80 / CO to assess afterload, guide vasopressor/vasodilator therapy, and differentiate shock states. Use the svr result to inform your calculation.
