Thermodynamic phase plane analysis of ventricular contraction and relaxation
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Ventricular function has conventionally been characterized using indexes of systolic (contractile) or diastolic (relaxation/stiffness) function. Systolic indexes include maximum elastance or equivalently the end-systolic pressure vol...
