4.4 FORWARD AND BACKWARD WAVES AT THE AORTIC ROOT: STEADY-STATE AND WAVE RE-REFLECTION CONSIDERATIONS
Background: The assumption of steady-state oscillation is often overlooked when arterial pressure and flow waveforms are decomposed into backward (Pb) and forward waves (Pf). This has led to various misinterpretations including a significant reflection-free time during early-systole and attribution...
