TLDR
The simultaneous aortic and pulmonary flow in six mongrel dogs was studied immediately before and after the creation of an ASD to determine what effect, if any, an altered intraventricular conduction may have upon cardiac dynamics in the presence of an atrial septal defect.

Pulmonary artery and left heart end-diastolic pressure relations.

W H Herbert
- 01 Nov 1970 - 
TL;DR: It is shown once more that the pulmonary artery diastolic pressure seeks the left atrial level: when right ventricular systole is delayed the pulmonary arteries pressure continues to fall with theleft atrial 'x' descent.

Atrial septal defect

Lewis Dexter
- 01 Apr 1956 - 
TL;DR: Atrial septal defect is one of the common types of congenital heart disease and there are a number of complications that occur and lead to varying degrees of incapacity-complications that may well have an important bearing on the risk of surgical intervention.

Time Relationship of Dynamic Events in the Cardiac Chambers, Pulmonary Artery and Aorta in Man

TL;DR: The results obtained by permutation of simultaneous pressure recordings confirm the classical observations made in dogs.

Systolic and diastolic loading of the heart. I. Physiologic and clinical data.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the theory of a dualistic compensatory mechanism of a heart which confronts a diastolic overloading or a systolic one is of great advantage over the unicist theory which reduces both to Starling's law.

Flow patterns in cavae, pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, and aorta in intact dogs

TL;DR: Flow patterns in cavae, pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, and aorta in intact dogs were remarkably similar to caval flow, and in the absence of transmitted pulmonary artery pressure pulses, the venous flow patterns are attributed to vis a fronte.

Atrial Pressure-Flow Dynamics in Atrial Septal Defects (Secundum Type)

TL;DR: These studies indicated that the major left-to-right shunt and pressure gradient occurred over an interval encompassing late ventricular systole and early diastole, and there was augmentation of the left- to- right shunt during atrial contraction.
