Default 12 ga. Slug and buckshot PSI?

I was just trying to figure the hydrostatic shock given off by a 12 guage slug, as well as buckshot. Say from about 15 yards, with a hit to the center of the chest, what would be the psi generated on its target? I cant find it out anywhere thanks for any help provided. Also if anyone else could find out the estimated survival time (seconds) to a direct chest hit from a 12 ga. slug (20-30 yards) I was also wondering that as well. Thanks again.
