The total flow rate of the system also impacts clog formation and the degree of occlusion before ablation. Fig. shows ∆P at each Q T . The baseline driving pressure varies linearly according to Q , with 1.2 µL/min requiring about 60mbar and 12 µL/min requiring about 600mbar to maintain a constant Q T in the absence of any gel occlusion. Interestingly, the difference between baseline driving pressure (∆P 0 ) and that at ablation (∆P Abl ) does not correlate with Q T , ranging between ∼35-95 mbar only, despite the order of magnitude variation in Q T . As seen in Fig. , the number of deposition/ablation events in 400 seconds increases slightly with increased Q T , with 9 complete events at 1.2 µL/min and 19 at 12 µL/min. This trend holds across all data gathered, as seen in Fig. . At higher Q T , clogs reach the point of ablation slightly faster in real-time, although there is more variance. At 1.2 µL/min, clogs ablate at a frequency of 2.0 ± 0.4 min -1 , while at 12 µL/min, clogs ablate at a frequency of 5.0 ± 1.9 min -1 .
