Ep. 33: Central Venous Pressure

In this episode, we break down central venous pressure (CVP)—what it is, what it actually tells you, and where it can mislead you in real clinical practice. We talk through the physiology behind CVP, how to interpret it in context, and why it should never be treated as a standalone marker of volume status or fluid responsiveness. Whether you are in EMS, critical care, emergency medicine, or just sharpening your hemodynamic understanding, this episode helps make CVP more practical and less confusing. As a bonus, we also review a case of acute ischemic stroke, walking through presentation, recognition, early priorities, and key decision points in management. We discuss what matters most in the first moments of care, how to think through stroke assessment, and the importance of timely intervention in improving patient outcomes. This episode is packed with practical pearls, clinical reasoning, and high-yield discussion for anyone who wants to connect physiology to bedside care.
