Means, standard deviations, and statistical groupings for Regurgitation, Percent Reflux, Reflux Energy Loss, and Energy Retention (parameters characterizing retrograde device performance) for the FL 1.25–5.00 mm prototypes. Values for the "No Device" case for each simulation are presented as part of the x-axis label. Alphabetical labels denote groups that are statistically different from each other (p < 0.05). By convention, the "No Device" case belongs to statistical group A.
