Design of Non-invasive Multi-parameter Pain Monitoring System
نویسنده
چکیده
Postoperative pain management of patients is a major medical and nursing challenge. Pain is still being measured in hospitals using Pain scales such as Faces scale. However this type of interpretation is not straightforward and management of postoperative pain using these methods continues to remain problematic and unsatisfactory. Poorly managed pain may interfere with postoperative complications, cause patient suffering and prolong recovery. In this paper, a multi-parametric method of objective pain monitoring using ECG, pulse rate and heart rate is proposed. The case of post-caesarean pain is taken up and the study showed that sympathetic tone increased, vagal tone decreased, heart rate and pulse rate increased during pain. A statistical‘t’ test was performed on the data obtained from patients and the test results justified the conclusion.

متن کاملA System for Continuous Estimating and Monitoring Cardiac Output via Arterial Waveform Analysis
Background: Cardiac output (CO) is the total volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute and is a function of heart rate and stroke volume. CO is one of the most important parameters for monitoring cardiac function, estimating global oxygen delivery and understanding the causes of high blood pressure. Hence, measuring CO has always been a matter of interest to researchers and clinicians. Sev...

In this paper, a new version of multi-objective differential evolution with dynamically adaptable mutation factor is used for Pareto optimization of a 5-degree of freedom vehicle vibration model excited by non-stationary random road profile. In this way, non-dominated sorting algorithm and crowding distance criterion have been combined to differential evolution with fuzzified mutation in order ...

In the present paper, a class of hybrid, nonlinear and non linearizable dynamic systems is considered. The noted dynamic system is generalized to a multi-agent configuration. The interaction of agents is presented based on graph theory and finally, an interaction tensor defines the multi-agent system in leader-follower consensus in order to design a desirable controller for the noted system. A...
