Abstract

ABSTRACT Heart-lung interaction must be analyzed while assisting patients with severe respiratory problems or with heart failure in intensive care unit. Such patients can be assisted by mechanical ventilatory assistance or by thoracic artificial lung. This paper presents an e-Learning environment aiming at teaching the interaction of cardiovascular and lung systems to medical students. Such an environment was experimented during a training course given to students of the School of Specialization in Cardiology at the Department of Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Nephrological, Anesthesiological and Geriatric Sciences held at 'Sapienza' University in Rome. The training course employed CARDIOSIM©, the numerical simulator of the cardiovascular system. Such simulator is able to reproduce pathophysiological conditions of patients affected by cardiovascular and/or lung disease. The simulator implements several different cardiovascular pumps in order to assist one or both ventricles in parallel o
