RVSP via VSD Flow — Let’s Break Down The Bernoulli’s Principle: ⚡ As blood velocity increases, pressure drops ⚠️ Inversely related: more speed = less pressure ➕ Often seen with the Venturi effect — pressure drops through narrowed areas (like VSDs!) In VSD cases: We apply the simplified Bernoulli equation to calculate the pressure gradient: ➕ Pressure gradient = 4 × (velocity)² So... RVSP = LV systolic pressure – 4(VSD velocity)² (Assuming no LVOT or RVOT obstruction) VSD Types Matter: 🔹 Restric
