Relation between global end-diastolic volume and left ventricular end-diastolic volume

The left ventricular dP/dtmax-end-diastolic volume relation in closed-chest dogs.

I investigated the relation of the maximum rate of left ventricular pressure rise to the end-diastolic volume and the comparison of the maximum rate of left ventricular pressure rise-end-diastolic volume relation to the end-systolic pressure-volume relation, using the time-varying elastance model. These studies were performed in 11 dogs chronically instrumented to measure left ventricular press...

Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure volume relationships with experimental acute global ischemia.

The mechanism of elevation of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure during acute global ischemia was evaluated by examiniation of the relative contributions of a decrease in contractility and an alteration of the pressure-volume relationship. The external circumference (mercury-in-silastic gauge) pressure relationship, as an index of the pressure-volume relationship, was studied in beta adren...

Ventricular pressure-volume curve indices with end-diastolic pressure.

Right ventricular end-diastolic volume monitoring after cardiac surgery.

INTRODUCTION In the postoperative management of cardiac surgery patients, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) and central venous pressure (CVP) are the most commonly used parameters of preload. However, these pressure parameters are easily affected by ventricular compliance, positive end-expiratory pressure and other factors. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether right ventricular...

Ventricular pressure-volume curve indices change with end-diastolic pressure.

Many indices have been proposed to describee the diastolic pressure-volume curve mathematically and permit quantification of the elastic properties of the myocardium itself in hopes that changes in the muscle caused by disease would b.e reflected in the diastolic pressure-volume curve. To date, none of the proposed indices has been shown convincingly to discriminate one group of patients from a...
