RV-pulmonary arterial coupling predicts outcome in patients referred for pulmonary hypertension.

Vanderpool RR1, Pinsky MR2, Naeije R3, Deible C4, Kosaraju V5, Bunner C6, Mathier MA6, Lacomis J4, Champion HC7, Simon MA8.
Heart (British Cardiac Society).Heart.2014 Sep 11. pii: heartjnl-2014-306142. doi: 10.1136/heartjnl-2014-306142. [Epub ahead of print]
OBJECTIVE: Prognosis in pulmonary hypertension (PH) is largely determined by RV function. However, uncertainty remains about what metrics of RV function might be most clinically relevant. The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical relevance of metrics of RV functional adaptation to increas

Model-Based Comparison of the Normal and Fontan Circulatory Systems: Part I: Development of a General Purpose, Interactive Cardiovascular Model.

Watrous RL1, Chin AJ2.
World journal for pediatric & congenital heart surgery.World J Pediatr Congenit Heart Surg.2014 Jun 23;5(3):372-384. [Epub ahead of print]
BACKGROUND: Every year, approximately 1,000 Fontan operations are performed in the United States. Transplant-free, 30-year survival is only 50%. Although some performance characteristics may be universal among Fontan survivors, others may be patient specific and tunable; in either case, a quantitati

The EIT-based global inhomogeneity index is highly correlated with regional lung opening in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

BMC research notes.BMC Res Notes.2014 Feb 6;7:82. doi: 10.1186/1756-0500-7-82.
BACKGROUND: The electrical impedance tomography (EIT)-based global inhomogeneity (GI) index was introduced to quantify tidal volume distribution within the lung. Up to now, the GI index was evaluated for plausibility but the analysis of how it is influenced by various physiological factors is still

Predictability of O_2 Consumption from Contractility and Mechanical Energy of Absolute Arrhythmic Beats in Canine Heart

The Japanese journal of physiology 55(2), 135-142, 2005-04-01
… We have established that Vo2 of a regular stable beat is predictable by Vo2 = a PVA + b Emax + c, where PVA is the systolic pressure-volume area as a measure of the total mechanical energy of an individual contraction and Emax is the end-systolic maximum elastance as an index of ventricular contractility of the contraction. …

Load Independence of Temperature-Dependent Ca^<2+> Recirculation Fraction in Canine Heart

Mizuno J.,Mohri S.,Shimizu J. [他],SUZUKI S.,MIKANE T.,ARAKI J.,NISHIYAMA T.,HANAOKA K.,KAJIYA F.,SUGA H.
The Japanese journal of physiology 54(4), 319-329, 2004-08-03
… We fitted the same equation: nEmax = a exp[−(i − 1)/τe] + b exp[−(i − 1)/τs]cos[π(i − 1)] + 1, used before to the normalized Emax (maximum elastance) values of PESi (i = 1–6) relative to the regular beat Emax. …

Postextrasystolic Contractility Normally Decays in Alternans in Canine In Situ Heart

The Japanese Journal of Physiology 53(4), 313-318, 2003
… In anesthetized, ventilated, and open-chest mongrel dogs, we measured LV pressure and volume with a micromanometer and a conductance catheter cannulated into the LV and obtained LV end-systolic maximum elastance (Emax) as the reasonably load-independent contractility index. …
