hummod-standalone's Issues

(1) Fake Issue - Hemorrhage Mismatch w/ QCP

This issue is fake. But it still exists.

Clamping parameters

In using HumMod for education, it would be useful to have the ability to clamp parameters at any desired level, even if that wouldn’t be possible in the real word.

For example, it would be good for teaching if I could individually clamp variables such as heart rate, arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, PVR, plasma NE, GFR, arterial pH, arterial PO2 and PCO2, ECFV Na+ and K+, osmoles in the body compartments, blood volume, and tidal volume and breathing rate. In some cases, control of these variables can already be achieved in the present model, but the control can be complicated to achieve (especially for students). For example, it's easy to use the ventilator to control breathing, but achieving a desired arterial PO2 requires balancing inspired O2 with ventilation, and achieving a desired arterial pH requires balancing bicarb infusion with increased inspired CO2 (which of course changes a different variable, too). Heart rate can be set above the intrinsic rate using the pacemaker, but not below the intrinsic rate. Same with NE secretion.

I realize the list of variables to control could be quite long, especially because every user might have her/his own list. Therefore, would it be possible to modify the Data boxes in the Tech window such that any variable, integral and implicit could be set to a constant? Or maybe just allow the user to write a script that would define the variables to be constant?
