Starling's law of the heart

Japanese: スターリングの法則 - スターリングのほうそく(英語表記)Starling’s law of the heart
Starling's law of the heart
Also known as the laws of the heart. A law concerning the self-regulation of the heart's pumping function, discovered by British physiologist Ernest Henry Starling (1866-1927) and his collaborator Frank O. Frank using a heart-lung specimen from 1900 to 1914. For this reason, it is also known as the Frank-Starling law. The first of Starling's laws states that when the amount of blood flowing into the heart from the vena cava (venous return) increases, the end-diastolic volume of the ventricle increases, but the heart adapts to maintain its pumping function by increasing the stroke volume.

心臓の法則ともいう。心臓のポンプ機能の自己調節性に関する法則で,イギリスの生理学者スターリングErnest Henry Starling(1866‐1927)および彼の共同研究者フランクO.Frankが1900‐14年に心肺標本を使用して,これを発見した。このためフランク=スターリングの法則ともいう。スターリングの法則の第1は,大静脈から心臓への流入血液量(静脈環流)が増大すると,心室の拡張期末容積は増大するが,心臓は一回拍出量を増加させることによって,そのポンプ機能を維持するように適応しているというもの。
