Pulse reflection sites and effective length of the arterial system

The concept of effective length (L) of the arterial system implies that it may be represented by a single viscoelastic tube terminated by an impedance, creating a single reflection site. Although the concept is straightforward, investigators for years have been unable to agree on the value of L. Pro...
