Have a Question About Acute Cardiac Unloading?

Email the A-CURE Working Group faculty to inquire about the science of unloading, experimental protocols, potential collaborations, or other questions on acute unloading.

Understanding the Pressure-Volume Loop

The pressure-volume loop is an excellent way of understanding the science of acute unloading. This video series presented by Khan Academy provides a first-rate source for educating yourself and your students on the hemodynamic information contained in the P-V loop.
