Examples of results obtained by students after working through the training instructions with the IHL model and using the default parameter settings. (A) Non-linear relationship between stroke volume (SV), central venous pressure (CVP) and contractility rates at a constant heart rate (HR) of 70 min-1; (B) Relationship between SV, cardiac output (CO) and HR at a constant CVP of 10 mmHg in absence of sympathetic stimulation of the isolated heart; (C) Change in systolic (downwards pointing triangle) and diastolic (upwards pointing triangle) blood pressure (BP) with increasing heart rate for arterial vessels with normal compliance (1.5 ml/mmHg) and reduced compliance (0.5 ml/mmHg)..
