심혈관계의 노화현상에 대한 혈류역학적 시뮬레이션
Hemodynamic simulation of the aging effect on the cardiovascular system
- 발행 : 2002.08.01
초록
Aging effect on the cardiovascular circulation is simulated by lumped parameter model. Aging phenomena can be hemodynamically explained as (1) the increase of flow resistance induced by remodeling of artery vessels and increased viscosity of blood and (2) the reduction of the vessel capacitance caused by arteriosclerosis. Appropriate physiological parameters are evaluated from the clinical data of adults and old men. Simulation results well explain the hypertension with aging of cardiovascular system.
