Normal Arterial Function:
Basic Physiology
• The arterial tree has 2 functions
– first, to deliver blood from the left ventricle (LV) to
capillaries of bodily organs and tissues according to
their need - ‘the conduit function’
– second, to cushion the pulsations generated by the
heart; they behave as a ‘windkessel’ (hydraulic filter)
to dampen blood flow and pressure oscillations
caused by the intermittent character of the LV
ejection ensuring peripheral organ perfusion at
steady flow and pressure - so that capillary blood
flow is almost continuous - ‘cushioning or
dampening function’

Cartoon of Young and Old Human Aorta
Schematic diagram of the aorta section in a young (left) and old (right) human, with inset (below each) the components of the aortic
wall. The wall of the older human is disorganized as a consequence of fraying and fracture of the elastic lamellae (yellow) and loss
of muscle attachments (red), together with increase in collagen fibers (black) and mucoid material (green), and with foci of
“medionecrosis.” Drawn by O’Rourke CM, after Glagov S. Personal communication, 1994.
