Fluid Dynamics During Resuscitation: From Frank–Starling to the Reappraisal of Guyton
摘要
The interaction between the return function of the circulation and cardiac function was described by Guyton. In doing so, Guyton developed a model incorporating the works of Starling and Frank with his own work. The Guytonian model provides a simple framework for understanding the possible effects of fluid boluses or vasoactive medications on various macro-hemodynamic parameters. In this chapter, we describe briefly the Guytonian model of circulation.
