- Abstract:
- In rotary blood pump recipients with low blood pressure pulsatility, current oscillometric methods to measure blood pressure are not applicable. The aim of this study was to use ultrasonic Doppler flow measurements to determine blood pressure in this patient population noninvasively. In 28 rotary blood pump recipients, blood pressure was measured three times with the developed Doppler method and compared to the invasive arterial line (n = 15) or to the oscillometric Terumo Elemano BP monitor (n = 13). Blood velocities in the radial artery were recorded by the new Doppler sensor during cuff deflation. A sigmoid curve was fitted to a preprocessed velocity signal and the systolic and mean arterial pressures were determined. A total of 84 measurements were performed, and 17 recordings were visually excluded from further analysis due to obvious artifacts. Both the systolic and mean pressures derived by the Doppler method were in good accordance with the invasively measured pressure (3.7 ± 6.6 mmHg for the systolic and -2.1 ± 7.3 mmHg for the mean pressure). A good agreement between the oscillometric monitor and the Doppler method for the systolic (0.0 ± 6.0 mmHg) and mean (1.0 ± 5.9 mmHg) pressures was observed. In this study, a new Doppler blood pressure measurement system was developed and clinically validated. The novel sensor allows easier placement above the radial artery compared to commercial probes. An algorithm was developed which processes the Doppler signal robustly and is able to determine the systolic as well as the mean arterial blood pressure.
