- In patients, because they have decreased peripheral resistance they have high cardiac output.
- And there is no reason why this happens is because peripheral resistance slows down the outflow of blood from the main artery to artery to maintain a certain degree of expansion.
- Then, comparisons of the effects of arterial compliance, peripheral resistance, length, internal radius and wall thickness on the input impedance were made based on the recursive algorithm.
- Measuring Total Peripheral Resistance(PR) with Reconstructed Impedance Cardiogram
- The determination of cardiac index, total peripheral resistance and peripheral lymphocyte adrenergic beta receptors in patients with essential hypertension
