In order to clarify the phase relationship between velocity pulse and pressure pulse propagating along microvessels, the red cell velocity and intravascular pressure were simultaneously measured in the rat pial arterioles of 41–53 µm in diameter with a high temporal resolution by a laser-Doppler anemometer and a servo-null micropressure system. It was found that the velocity pulse preceded the pressure pulse in all the measured arterioles by 18.7–35.6 ms. The corresponding phase difference was 43.6 ± 6.9° (mean ± SD), which is not statistically different from 45°. The value is consistent with the phase difference predicted for the blood flow in microvessels with a small reflection coefficient at frequencies as low as the heart rate of the rats. The present results suggest that the upstream changes in blood flow are transmitted by the velocity pulse faster than by the pressure pulse in the microvasculature. |
