By modeling the pressure-volume relationship, the Heart Simulator contains parameters that students manipulate to simulate conditions and pathologies. Changing these parameters is helpful for teaching and learning the functions of the heart. It provides a continuous graphic output of the relationship between pressure and volume in the heart under varying conditions.
