Cardiovascular pressure-flow relationships: what should be taught?
Cardiovascular physiology reflects the interrelations of flow, pressure, and resistance. Undergraduate students are often confused by the complexity of the system. This symposium presents a sequential presentation of the underlying concepts, building on analogies, past experience, and conceptual models to allow students to develop a physiologically appropriate understanding of cardiovascular physiology.
