Example sentences for: preload

How can you use “preload” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Kyriakides et al ., employing a Doppler echocardiographic technique, showed that the postural change increases preload and cardiac performance in normovolaemic coronary patients [ 10].
As the wedge pressure also increased in the patients of group B, whose right ventricular volume decreased after PLE, and the transoesophageal echocardiographic images did not show any apparent shift of the interventricular septum in all patients, we conclude that the increase in preload may have been the probable explanation for this haemodynamic change.
In fact, ejection fraction is preload and afterload dependent, and it correlates poorly with myocardial contractility.
Perhaps more important, these observations were valid for a wide range of PEEP levels, from 5 cmH 2 O to as high as 17 cmH 2 O. We ascribed the lack of significant changes in cardiac output and DO 2 in the patients to adequate volume status and preload.
It is therefore not a specific parameter, since its variation is due to the changes of one or more of the related factors (preload, afterload or contractility) [ 20, 21].
