Their results showed that in flow with isolated boluses‚ the pressure/flow relation was determined by the active and passive properties of the tube undergoing peristalsis and not by the outlet. Dynamics of the upper urinary tract and the effect of variations of bladder pressure on pyeloureteral pressure/flow relations have been studied by many researchers [6] but none of them included wall properties in their studies.
