Haemodynamic‐energetic mechanism of sudden cardiac death in severe aortic stenosis: A modelling study

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A sudden decrease in total peripheral resistance (TPR), as observed during vasovagal syncope, leads to a reduction in aortic systolic pressure (AO pressure) and afterload. In healthy individuals, the consequent decrease in left ventricular systolic pressure (LV pressure) lowers stroke work and myocardial energy expenditure.
