Question

Transcribed Image Text:The functioning of the mitral valve is of considerable clinical interest. The
filling of the left ventricle occurs during diastole, and blood moves from the left atrium into the
ventricle. The left atrium during diastole has constant flow from the lungs, Qi(t), into the
chamber with compliance CLA. The model of the flow through the open mitral valve comprises
the blood (across the valve) with inertance, L₁, and resistance of the valve, R. The model of the
left ventricle during diastole comprises mainly the properties of the ventricular tissue. (Since
there is no blood flowing through the chamber, the blood volume and associated mass are not
important.) The ventricular tissue has passive properties, mass inertance Lm, resistance Rm, and
compliance CLV. The ventricular muscle as it relaxes during systole presents a decreasing
resisting pressure, Pr(t) = Poet (this is the model of the muscle relaxing after contraction). The
pressure exerted on the passive components of the ventricle is Pb(t) - P,(t). Draw the electrical
analogy of the left side of the heart during diastole.
