Figure 2. End-systolic pressure-volume (top panel) and stroke work-end-diastolic volume relations (bottom panel) before (control 1; C (1)), during 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2 minimum alveolar concentration, and after isoflurane (control 2; C2) in a typical experiment. Pesand V (es)= end-systolic pressure and volume, respectively; SW = stroke work; Ved= end-diastolic volume.
