Right-to-left heart mechanical `crosstalk': The role of functional hydraulic properties of the myocardium

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Myocardial tissue coupling mechanisms responsible for right-left heart (RH-LH) interaction were studied by selectively modulating coronary arterial-venous compartments. In altering the mechanics and energetics of LH, the intramural hydraulic forces, originating in RH, constitute an intrinsic regulatory mechanism of cardiac function.
