초록

Recently, many studies have shown clinically the detection of proximal arterial stenosis through evaluation of a Doppler waveform alternation, the so-called pulsus tardus and parvus, that often occurs distal to the stenosis. However the cause of the tardus-parvus phenomenon remains obscure. To analyze its cause, we modeled the blood-flow circuit as simple electrical circuit. This shows that pulsus tardus-parvus effect is caused as a result of high-frequency waveform component attenuation from low-pass filtering by capacitance(complience of the poststenotic vessel wall) and resistance(stenosis). As a result, the degree of pulsus tardus-parvus increased as the complience of the poststenotic segment of vessel increased, as well as increasing stenosis.
