We used a servomotor system in open-chest dogs to rapidly clamp left atrial pressure below left ventricular (LV) diastolic pressure in order to produce nonfilling diastoles during which the LV fully relaxed at its end-systolic volume (ESV). Restoring forces (RFs) generated during contraction which result in LV filling by suction were considered to be present when the fully relaxed pressure (FRP) was negative. We characterized RFs in terms of the fully relaxed pressure-volume relation (FRPV relation, FRP plotted vs ESV), which has negative and positive portions and an equilibrium volume (FRP = 0 mmHg). A negative FRP is ordinarily present over the lower half of the physiologic filling range. Increased contractility (systemic dobutamine) shifts the FRPV relation downward, indicating greater RFs at any ESV. Intracoronary dobutamine administered via the left anterior descending coronary artery has the same effect. Acute increases in heart rate from about 100 to 150 beats/min did not alter the FRPV relation. In contrast, chronic tachycardia heart failure resulted in marked depression of the ability to generate RFs, even at very low volumes. Thus, RFs normally contribute to LV filling. They are augmented by acute increases in global and anterior wall contractility but not heart rate, within the range specified above. Chronic tachycardia heart failure markedly attenuated RFs. The latter may constitute a previously unappreciated mechanism of diastolic dysfunction in heart failure.
