Ventricular chamber compliance

---

Factors contribute to the intrinsic distensibility of the chamber – Ventricular chamber compliance

---

1. Afterload – Ventricular chamber compliance is determined to a large extent by afterload.
2. Intravascular volume status,
3. Myocardial muscle mass
4. Chamber geometry,
5. Coronary perfusion
6. Pericardial and intrathoracic pressures
