Why the study?
Does saline infusion alter regional arterial compliance and systolic pressure in patients with arteriosclerosis of the lower limbs compared to controls?
Does saline infusion alter regional arterial compliance and systolic pressure in patients with arteriosclerosis of the lower limbs compared to controls?
Patients with arteriosclerosis of the lower limbs exhibit reduced systemic arterial compliance, which is further exacerbated by volume expansion with saline infusion.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May warrant caution with volume expansion in AOLL; leaves open prospective validation of compliance as target.
Levenson et al. (1985) studied this question.
