Although changes in contractility are often accompanied by changes in relaxation, a mathematical model of ventricular coupling has not been described. A model we examined suggests a hyperbolic relation between measurements of contraction and relaxation. We thus tested the hypothesis that relatively load-independent measurements of contractility (end-systolic elastance [Ees]) and relaxation (the slope of the tau-to-end-systolic pressure relation [R]) were coupled.
