What's the difference between compliance and distringas?

Compliance


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of complying; a yielding; as to a desire, demand, or proposal; concession; submission.
  • (n.) A disposition to yield to others; complaisance.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Arterial compliance of great vessels can be studied through the Doppler evaluation of pulsed wave velocity along the arterial tree.
  • (2) Blood pressure control was marginally improved during the study and it is thought possible that better patient compliance might explain this.

  • (8) The data document the compliance of adolescent girls with telephone appointments and suggest that this technique may be a useful adjunct for monitoring patients requiring close medical follow-up.

  • (15) Current methodology for the in vitro determination of aortic and large artery stiffness is reviewed and involves three approaches: (1) the estimation of distensibility by pulse wave velocity measurement; (2) the estimation of distensibility from the fractional diameter change of a given arterial segment by imaging techniques (e.g., angiography, Doppler ultrasound) against pressure change; (3) the estimation of compliance by determining volume change against pressure change in the arterial system during diastolic runoff from the Windkessel model of the circulation.

Distringas


Definition:
