Cuff-less continuous measurement of blood pressure using wrist and fingertip photo-plethysmograms: Evaluation and feature analysis
摘要： Continuous monitoring of blood pressure improves prevention and control of cardiovascular diseases. Currently, cuff-based oscillometric sphygmomanometers are commonly used to monitor the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. However, this technique is discontinuous in nature and inconvenient for repeated measurements. Here we have proposed indirect measurement of blood pressure from photo-plethysmograms (PPG) simultaneously recorded from wrist and fingertip. The signals were recorded from 111 participants and different morphological features were obtained from PPG and its second derivative, acceleration plethysmograms (APG). Moreover, different measures of pulse transit time (PTT) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) were obtained from the recorded PPGs. Multi-layer Neural Networks were used to estimate the non-linear relationship between these features and systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP and DBP). Mean absolute errors of 6.77 and 4.82 mmHg were achieved in comparison with measurements from a validated commercial oscillometric sphygmomanometer. Feature analysis provided insight about the importance of features for estimating BP, and demonstrated that these features are not the same for SBP and DBP. Using the highest-ranked 15 and 13 features obtained from moving-backward algorithm the mean absolute errors were reduced to 5.31 and 4.62 mmHg for SBP and DBP. However, the optimum optimal feature sets provided by a genetic algorithm for estimating SBP/DBP led to the lowest mean absolute errors of 4.94/4.03. These results compared to previous studies and the available standards suggest that the method is a promising substitute for oscillometric sphygmomanometers which can be used conveniently for continuous monitoring of blood pressure.

Fundamental Study on Blood Pressure Measurement by FBG Sensor
摘要： In recent years, the demands for vital sign measurement system have been increasing, such as home health care for elderly people, or self-health management for healthy people. In this study, we aimed at the development of a non-invasive wearable device to measure vital sign. We use a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor as pulse wave sensor. A FBG sensor is the optical ?ber. Therefore, a FBG sensor has a lot of features. Its characteristics are suitable for the measurement of vital signs at all times. We ?x FBG sensors to di?erent two points of the body surface and acquired pulse wave. We calculated the systolic blood pressure by using Pulse Transit Time (PTT) which is arrival time lag of pulse wave. We have con?rmed the validity of the principle of systolic blood pressure measurement by FBG sensors.

[IEEE 2018 XIV International Scientific-Technical Conference on Actual Problems of Electronics Instrument Engineering (APEIE) - Novosibirsk, Russia (2018.10.2-2018.10.6)] 2018 XIV International Scientific-Technical Conference on Actual Problems of Electronics Instrument Engineering (APEIE) - Up-to-Date Thermal Imaging Systems in the Multichannel Automated Measurements
摘要： A highly informative methodology, the essence of which is to obtain the parameters of an object under study by means of the data synchronous acquisition from several measurement channels, predominantly based on different physical principles, infrared thermography (IRT) as a leading research tool included in such a multichannel (multimodal) measuring system is considered in some detail. The IRT-aided multichannel approach is demonstrated with studying the physiological characteristics in humans. The measurement synchronism of different technical means is realized by the computerization and automation of the experiment. The programmable microcontroller ESP32 served as main operating and readout unit. With a time resolution of 100-200 measurements per second, the experimental data were obtained. It made it possible to reveal the human physiological characteristics as follows: the extremities temperature change, pulse waves and their velocity in the radial artery, breathing dynamics, blood pressure evaluated in two different regimes of brachial cuff air filling – inflation and deflation. The brachial cuff inflation also served as external interventional impact on the organism. It is found that, after the brachial artery cross-clamping, the pulse wave velocity in the radial artery is capable of doubling in comparison with that measured before compression. It is shown that the multimodal technology is a promising means in modern experimental science.
