| Abstract: | A computer controlled equipment is described for computer analysis of isometric contractions of cardiac muscle by different modes of excitation. Both the method and the programme are presented. The following parameters are analysed: half and full contraction time, half relaxation time, maximum force developed during contraction, maximum rate of force development. The same computer is simultaneously used for controlling the stimulation. |
