摘要：A mock circulation system is provided including a collapsible housing having aplurality of channels formed therein so as to represent the arteries, veins and organs of ahuman circulatory system. A pair of artificial ventricles are connected to the housing andpump fluid through the housing so as to develop circulation within the housing. By using aplurality of flow-restricting devices, and by modifying the pumping of the artificialventricles, a variety of circulatory conditions (both healthy and pathogenic) can besimulated within the system. In accordance with the principles of the invention, cardiacmassage may be demonstrated by manually squeezing the artificial ventricles. Inaccordance with another principle of the invention, Starling's Law Curves may begenerated to show that cardiac output is determined by venous pressure.
