Position Position: Position of patient during measurment.
  • Lying flat [Subject is lying flat.]
  • Reclining at 45 degrees [Subject is reclining at 45 degrees.]
  • Sitting [Subject is sitting.]
Confounding factorsConfounding factors: Other factors that may interfere with interpretation of the measurement.
events
Any eventAny event: Generic event.
Average over heart cycleAverage over heart cycle: The average over one heart cycle.
Math. function: Mean

data
LocationLocation: The location of the pressure measurement.

All not explicitly included archetypes
SideSide: Laterality of the pressure.
  • Left [Left side jugular venous pressure.]
  • Right [Right side jugular venous pressure.]
VisibleVisible: Is JVP visible?
Visible columnVisible column: The pressure measured.
Property: Pressure
Units: <=0.0 cm[H20]
Relative pressureRelative pressure: The pressure in relative terms.
0: markedly reduced [The pressure is much lower than normal or expected.]
2: lowered [The pressure is reduced.]
4: normal/expected [The pressure is normal or as expected.]
6: raised [The pressure is raised.]
8: markedly increased [The pressure is much higher than normal or expected.]
Phase of heart cyclePhase of heart cycle: The phase of the heart cycle at the time of the measurement
  • Systolic [During contraction of the heart.]
  • Diastolic [During relaxation of the heart.]
CharacterCharacter: The character of the jugular pulse.
Hepatojugular refluxHepatojugular reflux: Observation that JVP changes with changes of abdominal pressure; also known as abdominal jugular reflux.
  • Negative [Indicated the internal jugular vein swelling as a response to increased abdominal pressure, but returning to normal immediately.]
  • Positive [Indicated the internal jugular vein swelling as a response to increased abdominal pressure, but being sustained and followed by a slower than normal return to usual levels.]
Kussmaul's signKussmaul's sign: A positive Kussmaul's sign represents the abnormal response where a JVP rises with inspiration.
  • Negative [Normal response where the JVP is lowered during inspiration.]
  • Positive [Abnormal response where the JVP rises with inspiration.]
Identifiable waveformsIdentifiable waveforms: Presence of identifiable waveforms.
  • Cannon a-wave [Abnormal wave pattern resulting when the atrium contracts against a closed tricuspid valve.]
  • c-v waves [Abnormal finding in tricuspid regurgitation.]
