Arterial compliance abnormalities in isolated systolic hypertension.
Arterial compliance measurements using intraarterial pulse contour analysis and a modified Windkessel model were carried out in 19 patients with isolated systolic hypertension (> or = 160/< or = 90 mm Hg) and compared to measurements in 29 patients with essential hypertension (diastolic blood pressure [BP] > or = 95 mm Hg) and 47 normotensive control subjects. Arterial capacitive compliance was...
متن کاملIsolated systolIc hypertensIon
Until the 1980’s the diastolic blood pressure (DBP) was assumed to be the most relevant hemodynamic parameter for prognosis of hypertensive patients. Elevated systolic pressure was considered as an inevitable consequence of aging and many physicians were reluctant to pay credence to the need for therapy of elevated systolic blood pressure. There was a radical change in thinking based on epidemi...
متن کاملSeparation of Arterial Pressure into Solitary Waves and Windkessel Flow
A simplified model of arterial blood pressure intended for use in model-based signal processing applications is presented. The main idea is to decompose the pressure into two components: a travelling wave describes the fast propagation phenomena predominating during the systolic phase and a windkessel flow represents the slow phenomena during the diastolic phase. Instead of decomposing the bloo...
متن کاملan investigation into iranian teachers consistency and bias in evaluation of students writings
while performance-based language assessment has led to an increased authenticity and content validity in the practice of writing assessment, the reliability of ratings has become a major issue. research findings have shown different reactions by native english speaker (nes) and non-native english speaker (nns) teachers to students’ writings. the focus of this study is on investigating whether i...
Hiding an elephant into a matchbox with transformation optics
Based on transformation optics, we propose an illusion device that can make objects look much smaller and different than they actually are. In particular, the device has a capability to hide a large object (like an elephant) into a small one (like a matchbox). Compared to previous proposals for illusion devices, there is no requirement for negative refractive index or for spee...
