It is known that as stimulation frequency is increased in a healthy heart, a corresponding increase in LV contractile function (dP/dt(max)) is observed, i.e., force-frequency relationship. The impact of this relationship on systolic and diastolic mechanical restitution in an ejecting, in vivo preparation has yet to be explored. Understanding this relationship may lead to further insight on the cellular processes that govern the contraction and relaxation of the heart, in addition to providing a safer, more feasible clinical diagnostic tool.
