Abstract: | A 4-parameter model to represent the relationship between slowly changing arterial inflow and the resulting pressure change was proposed. In order to determine values for the parameters and test the model in a wide range of pressure and flow, two experimental procedures were used. Firstly, slow oscillations in aortic pressure (period, 4 sec) were produced by means of an external pump connected to the aorta, and secondly, cardiac arrest was induced for about 2–3 sec by stimulating the right vagus. It was shown mathematically that the pressure and pump displacement information obtained in these experiments could be related to the model parameters. Values for the model parameters were obtained in 6 anesthetized dogs using a least squares adjustment procedure. Using aX 2-test, it was concluded that the model represented the arterial system for each animal well. |
