Understand:
In Vivo Assays (conscious, telemetered, anesthetized) are utilized because, in vivo, different physiological states, metabolites, autonomic baroreceptor function, and vascular responses can modulate the effects and liabilities of a test article or device. 

Quality repeat sampling focused on all important cardiac parameters
  • Integrity of autonomic nervous system and metabolism
  • No obfuscation by anesthetics
  • Measures vascular and cardiac parameters and baroreceptor function
  • Evaluates inotropy, lusitropy, and vascular properties
  • Studies reperfusion arrhythmias
  • Intra-coronary dosing
