A groundbreaking, global overview of the mechanical function of the cardiovascular system, as featured at the http: //cardiac-output.info website. This text explains fundamental but often misunderstood concepts, such as: the unique hydraulic characteristics of the heart as a pump and the cardiovascular system; the determinants of cardiac output; the mechanism that maintains blood volume equilibrium between the systemic and pulmonary circuits; and the primary contribution of the atria to circulation rate. Distilled from decades of research and surgical experience by Dr. Robert M. Anderson -- a pioneer heart surgeon, biomedical inventor, award-winning professor, and former Associate Dean of the University of Arizona College of Medicine -- the text is a far more explanatory and predictive account than the conventional model featured in many basic physiology textbooks (with its often misleading focus on incomplete parameters such as preload, afterload, contractility, and stroke rate times stroke volume).
