The science-based study of the heart has allowed us to know its structure and function deeply, through the fragmentation and analysis of its parts, following the guidelines that so many achievements have given to us. However, at the time of reassembling those analyzed fragments, we realize that something is missing; the simply sum of the parts is not equal to everything. Thus, for decades, numerous scientists have studied novel strategies that allow us understanding, every natural phenomena from a more inclusive, open and integrative models, which closely address to interactions rather than components. In this way, we can observe how, the behavior of many variables usually transgress the conventional plane and moves towards non-linearity and fractality, making a complex tissue that will maintain its structure while thermodynamically viable. Thus, this document shows the way how, the non-linear study of complex cardiovascular dynamics, begins to give us answers to many questions that the clinical cardiologist poses every day.
