Tech Tuesday – New Blog Post!
Calibrating Pressure — How We Make It Match Reality

Ever wonder why your pump says 150 mmHg, but your model shows only 105 mmHg?

This week’s article takes a closer look at:
✅ Why internal pressure sensors show different values
✅ How we calibrate our Flowbox pumps using real reference gauges
✅ The correction formula we apply to match real-life pressure
✅ Why you should always consider where the pressure is measured

🔎 Includes a real-world calibration chart and tips for simulation accuracy!

Pulsatility and Compliance — More Than Just Flow Rates

Setting your pump to the right flow rate is just the beginning.
To achieve realistic blood flow in vascular models, you also need to consider pulsatile waveforms and vessel wall compliance — two factors that shape everything from pressure behavior to device response.

In this week’s blog, we explain:
✔️ Why compliance matters for damping pressure spikes
✔️ How pulse waveform changes in rigid vs. flexible setups
✔️ Why using a full 70 mL stroke volume might cause unrealistic flow
✔️ How to match your simulation settings to the region of interest (ROI)

✅ Includes diagrams, waveform comparisons, and a material reference sheet!
