RV Systolic Pressure / PASP (TR jet)

RV systolic pressure / PASP from the tricuspid-regurgitation jet velocity (4v^2 + RAP, simplified Bernoulli) (Yock 1984).

Example

Peak TR jet velocity
2.8 m/s
Estimated right-atrial pressure
Intermediate (8 mmHg)

Result: RVSP / PASP 39.4 mmHg — elevated.

The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.

What the result means

Framing
A resting PASP above ≈ 35 mmHg is commonly flagged for further pulmonary-hypertension evaluation.

What you enter

  • Peak TR jet velocity
  • Estimated right-atrial pressure (from IVC)
How this is calculated
Formula
RVSP = 4·(TR Vmax)² + RAP; equals PASP absent pulmonic stenosis / RVOT obstruction. RAP from IVC: 3 / 8 / 15 mmHg.
