Abstract

This study introduces an improved method to determine experimentally the characteristic arterial impedance, and the forward and backward wave components in the carotid artery of the rabbit. This method is based on the concept of the "single-pulse response," i.e., the pressure and flow responses to a single cardiac contraction.
