Mean circulatory filling pressure provides a uniquely useful index of overall venous smooth muscle tone and an estimate of the upstream pressure determining the rate of venous return.
Mean circulatory filling pressure is a fundamental physiological parameter for understanding vascular capacitance, venous tone, and the determinants of venous return to the heart.

Clarifies the physiological role of vascular capacitance in hemodynamic monitoring; leaves open how this metric can be.
Carl F. Rothe (1993) reported a review. Mean circulatory filling pressure (Pmcf) was evaluated. Mean circulatory filling pressure provides a uniquely useful index of overall venous smooth muscle tone and an estimate of the upstream pressure determining the rate of venous return.
