Description

System and method for non-invasive measurement of individualized cardiac output
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of cardiac output measurement, and particularly relates to the technical field of noninvasive cardiac output measurement.
Background
The Cardiac Output (CO) is the ejection volume of the left ventricle per minute, is the most important parameter for characterizing the health status of the cardiovascular system, and is an important diagnostic basis for cardiac function and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, many other cardiovascular system parameters can be calculated in an auxiliary manner based on the cardiac output, so that accurate measurement of the cardiac output is very critical in the aspects of cardiovascular disease detection, treatment and the like, and has important clinical significance.
Currently, devices and methods for measuring cardiac output fall into three major categories, invasive, minimally invasive and non-invasive.
The invasive device and method is to insert a catheter from the peripheral artery by using an interventional device, inject a certain amount of physiological saline into the upper part of the right atrium through the catheter, mix the saline with blood, record a temperature change curve at the same time, and obtain CO through calculation of the temperature curve. This method, called thermodilution, is a "gold standard" for measuring cardiac output. The invasive method is mainly used in the fields of first aid, cardiovascular interventional operation, intensive care and the like, has the characteristics of large traumatism, complex operation and the like, and is easy to cause infection or complications after long-time measurement. Therefore, the method has certain clinical limitations.
Minimally invasive devices and methods combine single thermodilution with pulse waves for CO measurement, a technique known as PICCO. The FloTrac/Vigileo system is a typical minimally invasive device, a FloTrac sensor is used for collecting femoral artery or axillary artery pressure waveforms of a patient, the area under an artery pressure waveform curve is analyzed, the relative stroke volume is calculated by combining parameters such as age, sex, height, weight, body surface area and the like of the patient, and the continuous measurement of cardiac output is realized by utilizing a single thermodilution method for calibration. Although the invasive methods are greatly reduced and the risks of infection and complications are greatly reduced, the methods are still invasive and cannot meet the requirements of non-critical patients and healthy people on measuring the cardiac output, and therefore, some noninvasive cardiac output measurement methods are proposed in succession.
The non-invasive device and method mainly comprise an ultrasonic method, a thoracic impedance method, a pulse wave waveform analysis method and the like.
The ultrasonic method measures the blood flow velocity of the aorta or the pulmonary artery through a continuous Doppler ultrasonic technology to obtain the time integral of the blood flow velocity, and then calculates indexes such as the stroke volume and the like by multiplying the area of the cross section of a lumen of the aorta. A representative instrument is the australian USCOM instrument. The CO measuring instrument based on the ultrasonic method has high requirements on operators, the blood flow velocity waveform can be influenced by the strength and the direction of the sensor, so that the calculation result is influenced, and the error of the measurement result of the ultrasonic method and the measurement result of the thermodilution method can reach 40 percent, so the accuracy and the stability of the CO measuring instrument are required to be improved.
The thoracic impedance method is used for measuring the potential change of the body surface electrode of a human body and establishing the relation between the potential and the cardiac output, thereby realizing the measurement of the cardiac output. Typical representatives of this method include the NICOM system in the united states and the ICON system in germany, among others. Impedance method has been widely used and used clinically because of its non-invasive, continuous measurement, simple equipment and safety, but the technology relies on the diffusion of oscillating current through the thorax, and the interference resistance is poor.
Changes in transmitted or reflected light caused by changes in intra-arterial blood flow volume can be obtained by optical techniques based on pulse wave waveform analysis. When the blood flow volume in the artery changes along with the pulsation of the heart, light emitted by the light source passes through the artery and is received by the detector, the received light intensity and the blood flow volume synchronously change in a pulsating mode, and then CO is calculated by using a relation model between the arterial blood flow volume and the CO, so that CO measurement is realized. The cost is lower when the photoplethysmography measures the cardiac output, the signal is stable, but the waveform shape is easily affected by the position of the sensor and background light, and the accuracy needs to be improved.
Based on the peripheral pulse waveform obtained by the pulse wave waveform analysis method through the pressure sensor, a blood vessel mathematical model and a statistical model, such as a Windkessel model, a transmission line model, a regression model and the like, are established, and CO is calculated through the model. The peripheral pulse waveform is easy to obtain, the equipment is cheap, and the relative change of the cardiac output can be well monitored, so the technology has wide application prospect, but the technology has some defects, such as inaccurate mathematical model, especially lack of consideration of individual difference, and the absolute value deviation of the cardiac output is often large.
As described above, the measurement of cardiac output is progressing from invasive and minimally invasive methods to noninvasive methods, and the advantages of the pulse wave-based waveform analysis method are prominent, but there is a problem that the measurement of cardiac output is not accurate enough.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
1. the pulse wave is weak and is easy to be interfered, the peripheral superficial layer artery pulse wave is corrected through brachial artery blood pressure parameters to reduce the distortion degree, and the method is the basis for accurately extracting the pulse wave characteristics. Different from the prior art which adopts a fixed scale factor for correction, the pulse wave correction method firstly utilizes the fact that the pulse wave is corrected based on the fact that the arteriosclerosis and the pulse wave amplification have a direct proportional relation

The value range of the amplification factor alpha is limited to [1,1.5], so that the condition that the alpha is too large due to inaccurate measurement of the pulse wave conduction velocity is prevented. Meanwhile, the influence degree of individual physiological difference on the pulse wave conduction process is different, individual physiological parameters (such as height, age, weight, sex, medical history and the like) are introduced when the pulse wave characteristic vector is established, one-sided attention to waveform characteristics is avoided, and therefore the multi-parameter fused individualized pulse wave characteristic vector is formed.
3. The invention combines the artificial neural network to identify the stroke quantity of the individualized pulse wave characteristic vector, avoids complex mathematical modeling and overcomes the defect of insufficient expression capability of a mathematical model. The training sample is derived from the measurement data of the thermodilution method, so that the accuracy of the artificial neural network is ensured, and the trained artificial neural network can output a measurement result which is closer to the measurement result of the thermodilution method.
4. The magnitude orders of various parameters in the vectors are adjusted to be consistent by normalizing the input vectors, so that the training of the artificial neural network is facilitated. The de-normalization adjusts the quasi-output vector to the actual range.
