An Analytic Tool for Prediction of Hemodynamic Responses to Vasopressors

This paper presents a new analytic tool for automated control of vasopressor infusion, which uses measured changes in blood pressure to infer changes in the underlying cardiovascular system and then estimate dose-response relationships for the underlying cardinal cardiovascular parameters, i.e., those related to cardiac output (CO) and total peripheral resistance (TPR). Ultimately, blood pressure as a function of vasopressor dose is predicted...
