“…The CVST-2 tool is a series of programmed blocks which together describes the behavior of the different parts of the cardiovascular system, inside them are a series of electrical connections of different active and passive components, signals and mathematical operations. This tool is divided in five categories:Heart: Contains auricles, ventricles and valves.Measurements: Designed to obtain and visualize different parameters in the system.Veins: Contains power transmission-based circuits.Oxygen Transport: Contains blocks which calculate the oxygen concentration and the gas exchange between blood and the tissues.Other: Groups the other components that don’t fit the description of the previous categories, such as resistances and flow valves [2]. …”

“…The “healthy condition” refers to the simulation obtained of a healthy person, by using the CVST-2 tool. In addition, this simulation was previously validated by comparing its results with standard medical values of a healthy person [2]. This comparison between the simulation and the medical data is shown in Table 1.…”

“…In this paper, the human heart is simulated alongside some other heart failures. These simulations were implemented in MATLAB/Simulink ® R2015a using the Cardiovascular Simulation Toolbox (CVST) tool which was originally created by O. Barnea [1] and was later updated in Reference [2]. Only for a matter of clarity, in this paper, we are calling this updated version of the toolbox CVST-2.…”

“…Heart failures could also be explained in terms of their causes and effects. Since it was necessary to observe the effect of different diseases in the cardiovascular system, the model of a healthy condition [2] was modified to obtain different failures; this was accomplished due to the ease and flexibility of the programmed blocks of the CVST-2.…”

In this paper, we present the simulation of 5 different heart failures with the help of the Cardiovascular Simulation Toolbox (CVST) proposed by O. Barnea et al. at Tel-Aviv University. This is a modified version of the CVST, proposed by G.Ortiz; here, we show that the pathological failures can be covered by this tool. We varied the value of the tool blocks, included the results of the hemodynamic parameters and the P-V loop curves for each disease and compared them to the medical data to prove the effectiveness of the simulation. Based on these changes, we achieved an effective simulation of the following heart failures in the CVST: Diastolic Heart Failure (DHF), Systolic Heart Failure (SHF), Right Ventricle Heart Failure (RVHF), Low Output Heart Failure (LOHF) and High Output Heart Failure (HOHF).
