AB  - Hemodynamic  principles  describe  how  blood  flows  in  arteries  and  veins.  This  includes  the  relationship  between  pressure,  flow,  and  resistance  in  normal,  diseased,  and  collateral  vessels.  The  clinical  significance  of  arterial  disease  such  as  obstruction  depends  on  its  location,  severity,  and  duration,  as  well  as  on  the  ability  of  the  circulation  to  compensate,  by  changing  cardiac  output  and  developing  collateral  pathways.  The  aim  of  this  chapter  is  to  describe  the  principles  and  laws  that  are  essential  to  understanding  the  pathophysiology  and  the  fundamentals  of  the  treatment  of  vascular  disease.  There  are  a  few  principles  that  govern  flow  in  tubes  including  blood  vessels;  however,  blood  vessels  are  more  compliant  than  rigid  tubes  making  blood  vessels  more  complex  than  rigid  tubes.  Additionally,  blood  vessels  are  affected  by  biological  and  hormonal  factors  that  add  to  the  complexity  of  the  flow  in  blood  vessels.
