In a dog model of CHF induced by microembolization, ventricular contractile state is depressed and oxygen consumption intercept is reduced, but average myocardial stress-strain properties remain similar to normal hearts.

Altered chamber energetics without changed myocardial properties in this canine CHF model; hypothesis-generating and leaves open translation to human heart failure.
Todaka et al. (1997) studied this question.
