[Consideration of hemodynamics in the intervillous space of the placenta (author's transl)]. 1977

L Heilmann, and C Mattheck, and W Wiemer

Using Freese's hemodynamic model, we calculated the speed and pressure distribution in the villi-free area of the cotyledon. The Navier-Stokes equation was converted approximately into Reynod factors. The villi-free area was described as circular diffusor. On the basis of our computations, we assume that a predominately laminar flow occurred in the intervillous space; we considered an angular apearature of between 10 and 40 degrees to be physiological. In this area, pressure distribution is homogenous. The model-theoretical considerations presented here substantiate Freese's conception.

D010920 Placenta A highly vascularized mammalian fetal-maternal organ and major site of transport of oxygen, nutrients, and fetal waste products. It includes a fetal portion (CHORIONIC VILLI) derived from TROPHOBLASTS and a maternal portion (DECIDUA) derived from the uterine ENDOMETRIUM. The placenta produces an array of steroid, protein and peptide hormones (PLACENTAL HORMONES). Placentoma, Normal,Placentome,Placentas,Placentomes
