Description

This package contains the source codes for running 0D lumped-parameter simulations to model Fontan exercise physiology. The model inputs are patient weight, height, and exercise intensity. The model then performs a simulation to produce the presure, flow, and volume waveforms at various anatomical locations for the average Fontan patient with those input characteristics.
