A

extremities

34
Q

what has the greatest effect on flow resistance

A

vessel diameter

35
Q

what happens to your resistance proximal to a stenosis, why

A

it will begin to increase, the vessel diameter will begin to decrease

36
Q

what happens to your resistance distal to stenosis, why

A

begins to decrease, vessel will begin to get larger changing the diameter of the vessel

37
Q

an increase in resistance would lead to a ___ in flow volume

according to poiseuille's laws what causes the most significant changes in flow

A

small changes in vessel radius

44
Q

if the vessel diameter decreases what happens to the velocity

A

increases

45
Q

if vessel diameter increases what happens to velocity

A

decreases

46
Q

describe the stenotic profile prox at and distal to the stenosis

A

-proximal: may or may not be altered depending of severity of snenosis and where the same is being taken
