RatCVS (Cardiovascular System) belongs to The Strathclyde Pharmacology Simulations package that simulates pharmacological experiments on isolated tissues or whole animals. A range of drugs in varying concentrations can be applied and the effects observed. RatCVS is a simulation of the pithed rat experimental preparation for investigating the actions of drugs on the heart and cardiovascular system. "Pithing" refers to the destruction of spinal cord pathways, severing all the nerve connections between the brain and the cardiovascular system, simplifying the interpretation of experimental results by removing the central baroreceptor reflexes.
This simulation allows you to observe traces of blood pressure, left ventricular pressure, venous pressure, heart rate and contractile force on a simulated chart recorder, to apply a variety of different drugs, and to observe their effects.
