[IEEE 2019 41st Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBC) - Berlin, Germany (2019.7.23-2019.7.27)] 2019 41st Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC) - Characterization of Microvascular Post Occlusive Hyperemia Using Laser Doppler Flowmetry Technique in Subjects With Cardiometabolic Disorders

摘要： Introduction: Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) provides a noninvasive real-time quantification of relative changes in cutaneous perfusion. Assessment of the microvascular function can provide information on the development of various cardiometabolic disorders. In recent years, non-invasive measurements have gain attention, due to the potential complications associated to invasive procedures. Objective: To differentiate the microvascular function between subjects with cardiometabolic disorders and healthy controls. Methods: Evaluation through LDF during post-occlusive reactive hyperemia (PORH) in patients with or without history of cardiometabolic disorders. Results: Peak values of microvascular flow during post-occlusive reactive hyperemia and both upload and recovery slopes were lesser in the pathological group. Conclusion: A novel approach to characterize LDF during PORH was useful to differentiate patients with cardiometabolic disorders from healthy subjects.
