Abstract
The characteristics of pulse waveform, pulse duration, pulse frequency, impact force/pressure, and flow rate of 4 commercially available pulse lavage devices are measured and compared. Validation of the measurements obtained is provided by a laboratory system that generates and measures precise jet waveforms. However, the value of the devices studied awaits clinical trials.
