In states of decompensation, whether it be acute or acute on chronic, thoracic duct flow increases (on average to ≈8 mL/minute).59 However, while flow is increased, the flow capacity of the lymphatic system is overwhelmed by the increase capillary filtration leading to tissue edema; that is, there is a relative deficiency in lymphatic ...
METHODS: The tested valves (TMHV, BMHV, BHV) were mounted in a transparent phantom of an anatomically correct aortic root and integrated in a pulsatile flow loop reproducing physiological blood flow through the valves in aortic position. A multi-view imaging system for tomographic particle imaging velocimetry was used to measure ...
