Should you be using Admittance or Conductance calibration for PV Loops?

Pressure-volume (PV) loops are the gold standard for measuring direct, real-time cardiac function. By simultaneously plotting real-time ventricular pressure against ventricular volume, PV loops provide a unique, quantitative approach for determining the contractility of the heart, independent of...
