Popis: | Up until now estimation of arterial compliance has been performed either by analysis of arterial pressure changes with respect to volume changes or by inference based on pulse wave velocity (PWV). In this study we demonstrate the possibility of an approach to assess arterial compliance by fusing the two information sources namely the pressure/volume relationship obtained from oscillography and PWV data. The goal is to assess arterial properties easily and robustly, enhancing current hemodynamic monitoring. The approach requires as input signals: an electrocardiogram (ECG), a photo- plethysmogram (PPG) and the arterial oscillation as measured during non-invasive blood pressure measurements based on oscillometry with a cuff. These signals are fused by an algorithm using Bayesian principles underpinned by a physiological model. In our simulations, we demonstrate the feasibility to infer arterial compliance by our proposed strategy. A very first measurement on a healthy volunteer supports our findings from the simulation.Clinical Relevance - Arterial compliance/stiffness is recognized as a key hemodynamic parameter, which is not easily accessible and not a standard parameter currently. The presented method and obtained results are encouraging for future research in this area. |
