What Is Ventricular Pressure?

Left ventricular pressure (LVP) is a powerful internal pressure created when the left ventricle contracts. Left ventricular pressure is the main motive force for the heart to eject blood from the artery. Internal pressure decreases during diastole, and vena cava blood pressure returns to the heart. Each contraction and relaxation of the heart constitutes a cardiac cycle.
