Abstract
The applicability of LFSR to assess the left ventricular function under unloaded conditions was studied in seven canine heart under CPB(n=4) and left heart bypass(LHB, n=3). Instantaneous pressure-volume(P-V) data utilizing micromanometer and conductance catheter was obtained during transient(15sec) acute volume loading under CPB and LHB. The correlation(r) between stroke work determined as P-V curve area and end diastolic volume was high as ranging from 0.967 to 0.991. This highly linear relationship indicated that LFSR may be applicable to the partially unloaded left ventricle under assisted circulation.
