This article describes the modified arterial reservoir in detail. The modified arterial reservoir makes explicit the wave nature of both reservoir (<i>P<sub>res</sub></i>) and excess pressure (<i>P<sub>xs</sub></i>). The mathematical derivation and methods for estimating <i>P<sub>res</sub></i> in the absence of flow velocity data are described. There is also discussion of zero-flow pressure (<i>P<sub>zf</sub></i>), the pressure at which flow through the circulation ceases; its relationship to as ...[more]
