Figure 2 Artificial Venous Hypertension and Interobserver Agreement
(A) Venous hypertension. Mean invasive peripheral venous pressure (PVPi) without cuff compression was 19.6 ± 4.7 cm H2O, followed by a linear increase in PVPi above a cuff pressure of 15 mm Hg. Maximal PVPi was 67.8 ± 6.9 cm H2O. (B) Interobserver agreement: intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.988. PVPn = noninvasive peripheral venous pressure.
