P‐values for treatment and method effects in the Windkessel parameters (R d , R, C, and L)

Parameter/effect Treatment Method
R d (mmHg·min·mL−1) P < 0.0001 P < 0.9698
PAH0‐PAH3 P < 0.0003 None
PAH0‐PAH4 P < 0.0001
PAH1‐PAH3 P < 0.0461
PAH1‐PAH4 P < 0.0001
PAH2‐PAH4 P < 0.0001
PAH3‐PAH4 P < 0.0001
R (mmHg·min·mL−1) P < 0.0001 P < 1.0000
PAH0‐PAH4 P < 0.0001 None
PAH1‐PAH4 P < 0.0014
PAH2‐PAH4 P < 0.0003
C (mL/mmHg) P < 0.0001 P < 0. 8775
PAH0‐PAH2 P < 0.0193 None
PAH0‐PAH3 P < 0.0001
PAH0‐PAH4 P < 0.0001
PAH1‐PAH3 P < 0.0001
PAH1‐PAH4 P < 0.0001
PAH2‐PAH4 P < 0.0007
ln(L)(mmHg·min2·mL−1) P < 0.3834 N/A
None

Statistical significance is considered when P < 0.05. Treatment had significant additive effect on the R d , R, and C. Method did not show any difference between the 3‐ and 4‐element models.
