A Novel Non-Invasive Device for the Assessment of Central Venous Pressure in Hospital, Office and Home.

37 A highly significant positive correlation (r=0.86÷0.89, p<0.001) between central venous and peripheral venous pressures has been previously reported. 14 , 46 Among studies comparing PVP with CVP, 29 the ones involving a rather large population 14 , 46 found a mean difference between peripheral and central venous pressure of 2 mmHg, thus suggesting the measured PVP should be adjusted by the average bias of −2 mmHg to estimate CVP.
