Effect of Aging and Physical Activity on Left Ventricular Compliance

A sedentary lifestyle during healthy aging is associated with decreased left ventricular compliance, leading to diminished diastolic performance. Prolonged, sustained endurance training preserves ventricular compliance with aging and may help to prevent heart failure in the elderly.

Lumped Parameter Model for Heart Failure with Novel Regulating Mechanisms of Peripheral Resistance and Vascular Compliance

To research the change in the physiological mechanism between the heart failure (HF) patient and healthy persons, the physiology parameters, which include the myocardial contractility, systemic vascular resistance (SVR), and vascular compliance, were studied
