Overview

Defines RV pressure reference in canine models; leaves open human translation and validation.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Dogs (preclinical model)
I
Intervention
Rotating dogs into all positions in space to locate axes of rotation with least variation in right atrial pressure
O
Outcome
Location of the physiologic reference point for measuring circulatory pressuressurrogate

Identified a precise anatomical reference point in dogs for measuring circulatory pressures, located in the lower right ventricle, which remains stable regardless of position or circulatory state.
