Description

Wearable continuous blood pressure measuring system based on uncertainty quantification strategy
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medical instruments, and particularly relates to a cuff-free continuous blood pressure measuring device based on uncertainty quantification.
Background
There are two methods for blood pressure measurement: direct measurement and indirect measurement. The direct measurement method is to directly measure the arterial blood pressure after the catheter is placed through arterial puncture, and has the advantages of directly and continuously measuring the intra-arterial pressure, accurate measurement value and the defect of needing professional technicians and being invasive, so the method is only suitable for critically ill and major surgery patients. Indirect measurement methods are widely used in clinical practice because of their non-invasive nature, and commonly employ cuff compression methods, including korotkoff sound-based auscultation, oscillography, radial artery applanation and arterial volume compensation. However, due to the limitation of technical principles, the methods have problems which are difficult to solve in practical application. For example, the auscultation method and the oscillometric method can only measure single-point blood pressure and cannot provide continuous blood pressure readings, and the inflation and deflation of the cuff can bring discomfort to the detected person; although the arterial applanation tension method and the arterial volume compensation method can be used for non-invasive continuous blood pressure measurement, they are still invasive, cause discomfort to the subject, and are complicated and bulky in apparatus, require a professional operator, and have limited application. Therefore, a new blood pressure measuring method is developed, non-invasive, undisturbed, continuous and real-time measurement of the blood pressure is realized, and the method has very important significance for early discovery, early diagnosis, early treatment and effective management of the hypertension. In recent years, with the development of wearable sensing and intelligent algorithms, a cuff-free blood pressure measurement method such as a Pulse Transit Time (PTT) based method provides a new method for non-invasive, continuous and undisturbed blood pressure monitoring due to the simple structure of the measurement equipment and no need of inflating the cuff. For cuff-free continuous blood pressure measurement, the measurement accuracy is one of the main performance indexes, and is represented as follows: 1) The measurement precision has universality among different groups and individuals; 2) The measurement accuracy is maintained for as long as possible after the initial calibration.
Currently, many advances have been made in the research on cuff-free blood pressure measurement (including PTT principle method), but it is still difficult to realize high-precision continuous blood pressure measurement in accordance with clinical medical standards in the prior art. The problems of the cuff-free blood pressure accurate measurement are mainly reflected in the following three aspects: (1) The cuff-less blood pressure estimation model form has uncertainty: researchers all hope to establish a high-precision model to accurately reflect noninvasive blood pressure change indexesThe relationship with the interaction and influence between the blood pressure so as to accurately estimate the blood pressure value. However, there are many factors that affect blood pressure regulation, and usually, researchers only consider the main factors and ignore the secondary factors to establish a blood pressure estimation model. In addition, in the modeling process, different researchers have different expression forms due to different knowledge reserves and cognitive levels. Existing models describing cuff-free blood pressure estimation include a PTT-based ln (PTT) model, a 1/PTT model, and an e k*PTT Models, and the like, and combined with PTT and other characteristic models for representing blood pressure change, such as PTT and PIR models, and the forms of the models have certain differences. (2) The cuff-less blood pressure estimation model parameters have uncertainty: the cardiovascular system has high dynamic characteristics, the performance state of the cardiovascular system is influenced by various factors, and the body surface characteristics obtained by the wearable device are influenced by the environment and a measuring system to change, so that the blood pressure change characteristics and the cardiovascular system have uncertainty. This uncertainty collectively affects the distribution of the model parameters, thereby making the model parameters uncertain. In addition, the different characteristics of the population and the physiological characteristics of individuals, including age, blood volume, vascular elasticity, cardiac function, and autonomic function regulation, lead to population and individual variability in blood pressure measurement. The dynamic characteristics of blood pressure determine the differences in the individual, such as diurnal difference in blood pressure and changes due to environmental factors such as individual behavior, mental state, body temperature, etc. (3) model estimation error has uncertainty: the estimation of blood pressure by using a mechanism or data-driven model causes uncertainty in the error between the estimation result of the model and the actual blood pressure because the actual blood pressure is affected by various disturbances (such as heart rate, elasticity of aorta, peripheral resistance, etc.), and this uncertainty is called model estimation error uncertainty. To solve the above problems well, not only improvement of data analysis and modeling means but also intensive research and improvement of cuff-less blood pressure measurement from physiological mechanisms are required.
