Olano R, Espeche W, Salazar M, Forcada P, Chirinos J, de Iraola A, et al.
Physiol Meas . 2019 Oct; 40(11):115002. PMID: 31652431
Background: The interplay between cardiac function and the arterial system is currently defined as ventricular-arterial coupling (VAC) and it is an expression of global cardiovascular efficiency. VAC involves a variety...
