A method of simulating congestive heart failure uses catheters (aortic, right atrial, and left atrial), hydraulic occluders (#1, #2), and pacemaker probes (RV, LA) attached to an animal's heart (not numbered) to simulate a chronic condition. A pressure gauge (LV) and flow probe sensor (aortic) are also attached to the heart to monitor the effects of a test compound on the animal's cardiac function and systemic vascular dynamics. A method for assessing the effects of this test compound is included.

Une méthode visant à simuler l'insuffisance cardiaque globale fait appel à des cathéters (pour l'aorte, l'oreillette droite et l'oreillette gauche), à des occluseurs hydrauliques (#1, #2) et à des sondes de stimulateur cardiaque (ventricule droit, oreillette gauche) qui sont fixées au coeur d'un animal (non numérotés) pour simuler un état chronique. Un manomètre (ventricule gauche) et une sonde de débit (aortique) sont également branchés au coeur pour surveiller les effets d'un composé à l'essai sur la fonction cardiaque de l'animal et la dynamique vasculaire systémique. Une méthode servant à mesurer les effets du composé à l'essai est fournie.
