Abstract

Carotid pressure waveform is often used to substitute the central aortic pressure waveform, which conveys lots of information regarding cardiovascular system. Thus, a method was proposed to reconstruct the carotid pressure waveform from the radial pressure waveform which can be more conveniently monitored in comparison with the carotid pressure waveform. The reconstruction method was using Finite Impulse Response (FIR) model to calculate mathematical transfer function (TF) between the radial pressure waveform and the carotid pressure waveform. Pulse pressure waveforms of 5 subjects were recorded to test the performance of the TF. Except for some details, the reconstructed carotid pressure waveform is acceptable with the best percent root-mean-square difference (PRD) of 13.60%.
