FAQ
Presence of antegrade flow was significantly associated with large artery atherosclerosis as the cause of stroke. Rate of antegrade flow was much higher in patients with the large artery atherosclerosis subtype than in those with cardioembolism.
A normal physiological condition such as “patent” (meaning open) “antegrade flow” (meaning flowing forward) of the vertebral arteries” is not dangerous., rather it is totally appropriate.
Meaning of antegrade in English used to describe a forward direction or movement, for example the normal flow of blood in the body: The treatment resulted in improved antegrade pulmonary blood flow.
Meaning of antegrade in English used to describe a forward direction or movement, for example the normal flow of blood in the body: The treatment resulted in improved antegrade pulmonary blood flow. Antegrade and retrograde catheters are placed prior to cross-clamping. See also. anterograde.
If a carotid artery is patent, it means that the blood vessel remains open and unobstructed, allowing normal blood flow through it. A healthy, functioning carotid artery is crucial for supplying oxygen-rich blood to the brain. Blockages in this artery can lead to serious health complications such as stroke.
If the ductus doesn't close, the result is a patent (meaning "open") ductus arteriosus. The PDA lets oxygen-rich blood (blood high in oxygen) from the aorta mix with oxygen-poor blood (blood low in oxygen) in the pulmonary artery.

Your health care provider will perform a physical exam. Your provider may use a stethoscope to listen to the blood flow in your neck for an unusual sound called a bruit. This sound may be a sign of carotid artery disease. Your provider also may find clots in the blood vessels of your eye.
Ultrasound of the vertebral arteries can be variable in diameter. They should always demonstrate antegrade flow (toward the brain) and be low resistance similar to the ICA. Arrows indicate normal flow direction in the extra cerebrovascular circulation.
