The efficiency of the heart as a pump depends on an auto-regulatory mechanism, called length-dependent activation (LDA), that potentiates the strength of contraction in response to an increase in vent
Since the left ventricle (LV) has pressure (Plv) and volume (Vlv), we can define LV elastance from the ratio between Plv and Vlv, termed as “instantaneous elastance.” On the other hand, end-systolic e
