Ventricular filling occurs along the end-diastolic pressure-volume relationship (EDPVR), or passive filling curve for the ventricle. The slope of the EDPVR is the reciprocal of ventricular compliance. Therefore, changes in ventricular compliance alter the slope of …

End-diastolic pressure volume relationship (EDPVR) describes the passive filling curve for the ventricle and thus the passive properties of the myocardium. The slope of the EDPVR at any point along this curve is the reciprocal of ventricular compliance (or ventricular stiffness).

End Diastolic Pressure Volume Relationship (EDPVR) relates to the passive filling curve of the left ventricle during diastole and is a measure of passive chamber stiffness (see attached citations). The slope of EDPVR is the reciprocal of compliance and is used to measure ventricular stiffness.

EDPVR (End-Diastolic Pressure-Volume Relationship) shows the relationship between ESV and left ventricular volume. The EDPVR curve shows that the left ventricle can withstand large pressure increases but at a certain threshold, pressure rises rapidly with further volume increases.

May 1, 1995 · However, recent studies have shown that the relation can shift in any direction during both types of ischemia. The purpose of this study was to identify determinants of the shift of the end-diastolic pressure-volume relation (EDPVR) during pacing-induced ischemia.

Jul 7, 2020 · Pressure-volume (PV) loops are the gold standard for measuring direct, real-time cardiac function. By simultaneously plotting real-time ventricular pressure against ventricular volume, PV loops provide a unique, quantitative approach for determining the contractility of heart independent of preload and afterload.

Pressure-volume analyses demonstrating the normal PV loop and the determinants of ventricular function, including the ESPVR (characterized by the slope [E es] and the volume axis intercept [V 0] and the EDPVR (panel A). Shifts in the ESPVR are often equated with changes in inotropic state (panel B), while shifts in EDPVR toward small volumes or ...

We propose a single-beat approach to estimate the whole EDPVR from one measured volume-pressure (Vm and Pm) point. Ex vivo EDPVRs were measured from 80 human hearts of different etiologies (normal, congestive heart failure, left ventricular assist device support).

Left ventricular stiffness and contractility, characterized by the end-diastolic pressure-volume relationship (EDPVR) and the end-systolic pressure-volume relationship (ESPVR), are two important indicators of the performance of the human heart.

Preload is related to end-diastolic volume (EDV) and pressure; the relationship between these 2 parameters (the end-diastolic pressure-volume relationship, EDPVR) indexes the degree of ventricular remodeling.
