I'm wondering about the possible reasons for a low Stroke Volume Index (SVI). What factors or conditions could lead to a decrease in this important cardiac measure?

One interpretation of a lowered SVI is that the sludge age has risen to an optimal level, which is beneficial for the overall efficiency of the treatment system.

Another potential reason for the decrease in SVI could be the resolution of issues related to filamentous organisms, which often disrupt the settling process of sludge.

Conversely, if the SVI continues to decline, it might suggest that the sludge age is becoming excessively long.

An excessively long sludge age can lead to detrimental effects on the quality of the effluent water, as the treatment process may not be effective enough to remove contaminants.

The reduced sludge volume index (SVI) serves as an indicative factor in assessing the health of a wastewater treatment process.
