10.10 HEMODYNAMIC CORRELATES OF THE LEFT VENTRICULAR MEAN EJECTION PRESSURE: A CAROTID TONOMETRY STUDY

Background: The systemic arterial load imposed to the left ventricle (LV) is a major determinant of normal/abnormal cardiovascular function. The LV mean ejection pressure (LVMEP) is the best estimate of load faced by the LV throughout ejection. The contribution of the steady and pulsatile blood pres...
