The SI-LANGWH isolated working heart system was developed for in vitro measurements of the mechanical activity and work performed by hearts from small animals according to the methods devised by J. R. Neely, et al. This system is designed with a combination of features from both the classic Langendorff (non-working) and the Neely (working) systems. This system includes a stainless steel sink, a small reeling pump and specially designed two-way Teflon taps.
- For use on small mammalian hearts (mouse, rat, guinea pig, hamster and rabbit)
- Working (Neely) and nonworking (Langendorff) options in the same device
- Control of the left ventricular diastolic pressure (LVDP), coronary flow and cardiac output by variation of the left atrial filling pressure and the hydrostatic pressure in the aorta
- Measurement of the heart rate, atrial and ventricular pressure and cardiac output
- Ports for drug administration
- Pacing of the heart is possible
- Special ECG sensor available
- Tissue easily removed for biochemical investigations
