Abstract:Background
Wave reflections play a major role in changing the shape of the pressure waveform. Reflections measured at the aortic root (AR) are thought to be due to the tapering of the aorta [1] and multiple reflection sites, however, there is no consensus on the source of those reflected waves. This research aims to better understand the origin of the reflected waves observed in AR.
Methods
A 1D computational model of arterial wave propagation was … Show more
