Does not support practice changes; leaves open whether modeled hemodynamics predict clinical events in humans.
A 2012 study studied Microcirculation hemodynamics. Non-uniform vessel geometry and Herschel-Bulkley fluid properties vs. Uniform vessel geometry / Newtonian fluid was evaluated on Velocity distribution and wall shear stress. Mathematical modeling reveals that blood velocity and wall shear stress are significantly affected by the non-uniform geometry of blood vessels, amplitude ratio, and fluid index.
