Key result
Nonpulsatile perfusion may impair organ function, particularly kidney function, as evidenced by reductions in urine output associated with decreased pulse pressure.

Does pulsatile blood flow improve organ function compared to nonpulsatile perfusion?
This review highlights the physiological importance of pulsatile blood flow in maintaining organ function, particularly renal function, compared to nonpulsatile perfusion.
M Many (1968) conducted a review in Physiologic disturbances in nonpulsatile perfusion. Nonpulsatile perfusion vs. Pulsatile blood flow was evaluated on Organ function (specifically kidney function and urine output). Nonpulsatile perfusion may impair organ function, particularly kidney function, as evidenced by reductions in urine output associated with decreased pulse pressure.
