With regards to potential hyperemia-induced changes in PCWP and their effect on physiologic index derivation, we recognize that such changes may proportionally have a greater effect on the transpulmonary pressure gradient than changes in systemic venous pressures would have on the gradient across the higher-pressured systemic circulation.
