    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Physiology
    • Medical Informatics
    • Pharmacodynamics

    Background:

    • Hemodynamic drug-effect studies are crucial for understanding cardiovascular responses.
    • Repetitive measurements and complex calculations for left ventricular (LV) contractility and relaxation indices are time-consuming.
    • Efficient data processing systems are needed to accelerate cardiovascular research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an integrated system for acquiring, calculating, storing, and reporting hemodynamic data.
    • To utilize a standard microcomputer for processing electrocardiogram (E.K.G), peripheral arterial pressure, and LV pressure signals.
    • To facilitate the analysis of single-dose drug-effect studies in cardiovascular research.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a software system using BASIC Applesoft and machine language utility routines on an Apple II+ microcomputer.
