Due to that, by definition, a differential pressure of 12mmHg is concerned, this size will be determined by dividing by 12, the measured time interval. Quite simply the pressure build-up is less than 400mmHg/sec then this is an indication for a reduced right ventricular function. | Due to that, by definition, a differential pressure of 12mmHg is concerned, this size will be determined by dividing by 12, the measured time interval.
