Technology Development for Simultaneous Wearable Monitoring of Cerebral Hemodynamics and Blood Pressure

For many cerebrovascular diseases both blood pressure (BP) and hemodynamic changes are important clinical variables. In this paper, we describe the development of a novel approach to noninvasively and simultaneously monitor cerebral hemodynamics, BP, and other important parameters at high temporal resolution (250 Hz sampling rate). In this approach, cerebral hemodynamics are acquired using near infrared spectroscopy based sensors and algorithms,...
