Relationship between aortic-to-radial arterial pressure gradient after cardiopulmonary bypass and changes in arterial elasticity.
BACKGROUND An aortic-to-radial arterial pressure gradient may develop during and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The mechanisms of this pressure gradient remain controversial. To clarify the cause of the pressure gradient after CPB, the authors investigated the relationship between the pressure gradient and changes in the pulse wave velocity (PWV) before and after CPB. METHODS The pressur...
متن کاملDoes radial artery pressure accurately reflect aortic pressure?
STUDY OBJECTIVE Our objective was to determine whether the systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressures measured in the radial artery accurately reflect corresponding pressures in the ascending aorta in narcotic-anesthetized patients with known obstructive coronary artery disease, before being subjected to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). DESIGN This was a prospective study. SETTING The ca...
متن کاملRight ventricular systolic pressure gradients in aortic valve disease.
Obstruction to ventricular outflow may be either discrete and fixed, or dynamic and variable. A fixed obstruction is most common at valvar level but occasionally it may be subvalvar or supravalvar. Dynamic or functional obstruction is associated with hypertrophy of ventricular muscle and is invariably subvalvar. This latter type of functional obstruction was first recognized in the right ventri...
متن کاملRadial Gradients of Abundances
We have computed a set of multiphase chemical evolution models in which the radial mass distribution of each theoretical galaxy is calculated using the universal rotation curve from Persic, Salucci & Steel (1996). We obtain the chemical evolution for galaxies of different masses and morphological types by changing the efficiencies to form molecular clouds and stars according with these types. W...
متن کاملTheoretical treatise: arterial pressure during aortic surgery.
The optimum arterial perfusion pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remains uncertain. A correlation in some form with the patients' resting pressure almost certainly exists. Temperature and hematocrit affect blood viscosity. The optimum perfusion pressure during aortic surgery will vary after the initiation of CPB resulting cooling, heating, and hematocrit changes. Poiseuille's Law was...
