Abstract
ALVAREZ RAMIREZ, Iván and CRUZ MARTINEZ, Luís Eduardo. Applied Cardiovascular Physiology in Dogs with Heart Failure. Rev. Med. Vet. [online]. 2011, n.21, pp.115-132. ISSN 0122-9354.
Congestive heart failure is related to abnormal ventricular contraction and relaxation. Recent publications show that the alteration of systolic and diastolic function coexists in most patients with heart diseases. There are currently several ambiguities in the daily use of clinical and physiological terms regarding this topic. This paper aims to review certain physiological concepts of the cardiovascular system.
Keywords : cardiovascular physiology; heart failure; canines.
