Implication

May enable flexible preclinical LV testing; leaves open clinical translation pending validation.

Structured PICO

Population

Hybrid (numerical-physical) model of the left ventricle

Intervention

Variable elastance numerical model connected to a physical circuit (reservoir and modified windkessel) via an electro-hydraulic interface (DC motor-gear pump system)

Outcome

Behaviour of the ventricular model on the pressure-volume plane and the time course of output flow and arterial pressure

A novel hybrid numerical-physical model of the left ventricle was developed to combine the flexibility of numerical models with the functions of physical models for testing and research.
