Fig. 3From: A dynamical model for heart remodeling during the two phases of pulmonary arterial hypertensionSchematic diagram (a) of the right ventricle ejection and its electrical analogy (b). The ventricle is considered as a non-ideal cardiac output generator made of an ideal generator providing the ideal output Q ir, then split into an ejected output Q er corresponding to the blood actually ejected from the ventricle and a backflow output Q r corresponding to the blood retained in the ventricle. In the electrical analogy blood flow and pressure are replaced with current and voltage, respectivelyBack to article page
