Abstract

On the basis of the windkessel model, the stroke volume-to-aortic pulse pressure ratio (SV/PP) has been proposed as an estimate of total arterial compliance, but recent studies have questioned this approximation. Aortic pressure was obtained at rest in 31 adults undergoing cardiac catheterization (47 ± 14 yr): controls ( n = 7), patients with dilated cardiomyopathy ( n = 10), and patients with other cardiac diseases ( n = 14). We calculated PP, mean aortic pressure (MAoP), heart period ( T), SV (thermodilution cardiac output/heart rate), total peripheral resistance ( R), total arterial compliance estimated by area method ( C area), and the time constant of aortic pressure decay in diastole ( RC area). In the overall population ( n = 31), there was no significant difference between SV/PP and C area. SV/PP was linearly related to C area(SV/PP = 0.99 C area+ 0.05; r = 0.98; P < 0.001); the slope and intercept did not differ from unity and zero, respectively. Similar results were obtained in the three subgroups. These results implied that PP/MAoP and T/ RC area were proportionally related ( T/ RC area= 1.18PP/MAoP − 0.07; r = 0.96; P < 0.001). We conclude that for humans at rest 1) SV/PP gave a reliable estimate of C area, and 2) T normalized by the time constant of aortic pressure decay in diastole was proportionally related to PP/MAoP. This last relationship could be considered an aspect of the coupling between the left ventricle and its load.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
