Successful percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty of the aortic valve in an infant.

abstract：:Calculating pulmonary vascular resistance is important in many fields of medicine. Although the influence of hematocrit on calculated resistance has been known for many years, it is rare to find the appropriate corrections in published articles. This review discusses the relationship between viscosity and resistance a...
