GARCIA-DOMINGUEZ, Gustavo; MONAREZ-ZEPEDA, Enrique  y  BARRIGA-FERREYRA, Pedro. Mean systemic filling pressure: Is the ideal parameter to evaluate optimal preload?. Rev. Mex. Cardiol [online]. 2014, vol.25, n.1, pp.21-25. ISSN 0188-2198.

One challenge for the cardiologist is to achieve optimal blood volume for to improve cardiac output, and avoid excessive blood volume that could favor a negative prognosis. Now is known that the positive balance is associated with increased mortality; today we have different standards for assessing preload yet none is highly reliable; the objective of this review is to give a reminder of its physiological concept and profits in patient monitoring.

Palabras llave : Mean systemic filling pressure; cardiac work; right atrial pressure; cardiac output; venous resistance; arterial resistance; venous return.
