Left ventricular wall elasticity
Notation in mathematical model
GHL
Allometric exponent
-2


The parameter describes the dependence of diastolic left ventricular pressure PHL from blood volume VHL in it. For the building of our model we choose the function (22), so that heart work can reflect major autoregulation regularities and provide the resemblance of curves of intraventricular pressure. In the current model version the equation takes place:
