Abstract
Techniques are described for measurement of the resistance to blood flow through the larger vessels of the forearm and hand. Various objections to the validity of the techniques are described and examined. Results indicate that the possible rate of blood flow through the arteries in a limb could be twice the rate of blood flow through the limb circulation as a whole.Keywords
