A new Matlab Simulink toolbox enables cardiovascular system simulation, aiding the study of blood flow and disease. This open-source tool promotes collaborative research and standardization in cardiovascular modeling.

Area of Science:

  • Physiology
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Cardiovascular system modeling is crucial for understanding blood flow dynamics and disease.
  • Existing modeling tools may lack modularity or accessibility for broad research collaboration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a versatile, open-source Matlab Simulink toolbox for simulating cardiovascular system models.
  • To facilitate the study of various physiological and pathological conditions within the cardiovascular system.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized well-established analog lumped models for blood flow in vessels.
  • Incorporated varying elastance heart models, blood flow through shunts and valves.
  • Included models for oxygen exchange in the lungs and tissues.

Main Results:

  • Developed a modular toolbox with adaptable component parameters for user customization.
  • Demonstrated the toolbox's utility through several simulation examples.
  • Made the modeling system open-source and freely available for download.

Conclusions:

  • The developed toolbox provides a foundational platform for cardiovascular system simulation.
  • The open-source nature encourages collaboration, standardization, and free exchange of research contributions.
  • A dedicated website will support community contributions and foster further development.
