Determinants of pulse pressure.
We have searched to define the major arterial parameters that determine aortic systolic (Ps) and diastolic (Pd) pressure in the dog. Measured aortic flows were used as input to the 2-element windkessel model of the arterial system, with peripheral resistance calculated as mean pressure divided by mean flow and total arterial compliance calculated from the decay time in diastole. The windkessel ...
متن کاملNew problems raised by increased pulse pressure.
There is now ample evidence that brachial artery pulse pressure (PP) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular (CV) outcomes, principally in subjects aged .59. This finding has been observed not only in European but also in American and Asiatic populations. The results of PROCAM, which involves a 10-year follow-up of more than 20 000 subjects, allow new prospective views on this finding. In...
متن کاملSex differences in genetic and environmental determinants of pulse pressure.
Pulse pressure (PP) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. PP rises with age, more so in women. We examined sex differences in the correlations and variance components of PP in adult subjects from 767 nuclear families, enriched with those containing twins, from the Victorian Family Heart Study. After adjusting for age, we found no significant differences in the means or varia...
متن کاملInvestigation of Pressure Pulse Distribution in Porous Media
Diffusivity equation commonly used for pressure distribution prediction in porous media results from substituting equation of state and continuity equation in Navier-Stokes momentum equation. From mathematical point of view this equation format shows infinite propagation speed for pressure pulse through porous media, which is physically impossible. This issue may caused by numerous assumption...
متن کاملRaised intracranial pressure.
Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is a common problem in neurosurgical and neurological practice. It can arise as a consequence of intracranial mass lesions, disorders of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation, and more diffuse intracranial pathological processes. Its development may be acute or chronic. There are well established methods for the measurement, continuous monitoring, and treatmen...
