Abstract
Background: This article introduces a novel method to continuously monitor regional muscle blood flow by using Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS). We demonstrate the feasibility of the new method in two ways: (1) by applying this new method of determining blood flow to experimental NIRS data during exercise and ischemia; and, (2) by simulating muscle oxygenation and blood flow values using these newly developed equations during recovery from exercise and ischemia. Methods: Deoxy (Hb) and oxyhemoglobin (Hb[O.sub.2]), located in the blood of the skeletal muscle, carry two internal relationships between blood flow and oxygen consumption. One is a mass transfer ...
