Theoretical model analyzes blood vessel pressure changes in critical stenosis, indicating better predictions of flow dynamics.
The mechanics of critical stenosis of a blood vessel are studied by means of a comprehensive theoretical model in terms of energy changes and dissipation. These theoretical assumptions correlate well with experimental data obtained in vivo. Previous work in this field is analyzed. This new treatment of the phenomenon of blood vessel stenosis allows explanation of apparent contradictions in previous studies. When the velocity of flow in the unstenosed portion and the geometry of the stenosis are known, the drop in pressure at flow can be predicted.
