    Nonlinear cuffless blood pressure estimation of healthy subjects using pulse transit time and arrival time

    , Article IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement ; Volume 66, Issue 12 , 2017 , Pages 3299-3308 ; 00189456 (ISSN) Esmaili, A ; Kachuee, M ; Shabany, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    This paper presents a novel blood pressure (BP) estimation method based on pulse transit time (PTT) and pulse arrival time (PAT) to estimate the systolic BP (SBP) and the diastolic BP (DBP). A data acquisition hardware is designed for high-resolution sampling of phonocardiogram (PCG), photoplethysmogram, and electrocardiogram (ECG). PCG and ECG perform as the proximal timing reference to obtain PTT and PAT indices, respectively. In order to derive a BP estimator model, a calibration procedure, including a supervised physical exercise, is conducted for each individual, which causes changes in their BP, and then, a number of reference BPs are measured alongside the acquisition of the signals... 

    Non-invasive blood pressure estimation using phonocardiogram

    , Article Proceedings - IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems, 28 May 2017 through 31 May 2017 ; 2017 ; 02714310 (ISSN) ; 9781467368520 (ISBN) Esmaili Dastjerdi, A ; Kachuee, M ; Shabany, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    This paper presents a novel approach based on pulse transit time (PTT) for the estimation of blood pressure (BP). In order to achieve this goal, a data acquisition hardware is designed for high-resolution sampling of phonocardiogram (PCG) and photoplethysmogram (PPG). These two signals can derive PTT values. Meanwhile, a force-sensing resistor (FSR) is placed under the cuff of the BP reference device to mark the moments of measurements accurately via recording instantaneous cuff pressure. For deriving the PTT-BP models, a calibration procedure including a supervised physical exercise is conducted for each individual. The proposed method is evaluated on 24 subjects. The final results prove... 

    Non-invasive and Continuous Blood Pressure Measurement Using Pulse Transit Time without Cuff Requirement

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Esmaili Dastjerdi, Amir Hossein (Author) ; Shabany, Mahdi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    This thesis addresses cuff-less blood pressure (BP) estimation, for systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) estimation with the aid of the processing of vital signals. Both with and without calibration per person approaches for BP estimation are considered. A data acquisition hardware is designed for high-resolution sampling of phonocardiogram (PCG), Photoplethysmogram (PPG) and electrocardiogram (ECG). Using these signals, pulse transit time (PTT) and pulse arrival time (PAT) indexes, which would be used for BP estimation with calibration, are extracted. For the BP estimator model using the calibration, A nonlinear model based on PTT or PAT, via modeling the vessels...

    Abstract
    Hypertension precvalence is 24 and 20.5 percent in men and women, respectively. Continuous Blood Pressure monitoring can provide invaluable information about individuals’ health conditions. However, BP is conventionally measured using inconvenient cuff-based instruments, which prevents continuous BP monitoring. This work presents an efficient algorithm, based on the Pulse Arrival Time (PAT), extracted from Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Photopletysmograph (PPG), for the continuous and cuff-less estimation of the Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP), and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) values. Methods: The proposed framework estimates the BP values through processing vital...

    Abstract
    Goal: Continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring can provide invaluable information about individuals' health conditions. However, BP is conventionally measured using inconvenient cuff-based instruments, which prevents continuous BP monitoring. This paper presents an efficient algorithm, based on the pulse arrival time (PAT), for the continuous and cuffless estimation of the systolic BP, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) values. Methods: The proposed framework estimates the BP values through processing vital signals and extracting two types of features, which are based on either physiological parameters or whole-based representation of vital signals. Finally,...
