This page contains the Left Ventricular Stroke Work Index (LVSWI) formula which calculates LV (Left Ventricular) workload and contractility. Patients with higher LV workload capacity are indicated by higher Left Ventricular Stroke Work Index (LVSWI). LVSWI formula in this page requires Left ventricular stroke work index, pulmonary artery wedge pressure, artery systolic pressure, stroke volume, patient weight and patient height as input values to perform calculation.
Learn the calculation of Left ventricular stroke work index using the LVSWI formula given above. It is an index used in the medical terms to assess the work capacity of left ventricle of the heart in heart patients.
