Abstract

Embodiments of the disclosure are directed to methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for determining a hemodynamic parameter. An exemplary method comprises: receiving data associated with at least one heart beat; calculating a first standard deviation for at least a portion of the data; interpolating a second standard deviation for at least a second portion of the data; and determining the hemodynamic parameter based on the first standard deviation and the second standard deviation.

Claims (34)

1. A method for determining a hemodynamic parameter, the method comprising:

receiving data associated with at least one heart beat;

calculating a first standard deviation for at least a portion of the data;

determining, using a computing device processor, a polynomial function that fits the first standard deviation, the polynomial function being associated with at least one polynomial coefficient;

interpolating a second standard deviation for at least a second portion of the data, wherein the second standard deviation is interpolated by subtracting the polynomial function from the first standard deviation; and

determining, using the computing device processor, the hemodynamic parameter based on multiplying a constant and a standard deviation of the second standard deviation to produce a first computation, and dividing the first computation by a mean of the first standard deviation.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a stroke volume variation, and wherein the data comprises blood pressure data.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a pulse pressure variation, and wherein the data comprises pulse pressure data.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a systolic pressure variation, and wherein the data comprises systolic pressure data.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a plethysmographic variability index, and wherein the data comprises pulse oximeter waveform data.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polynomial function is based on a least-squares function.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein receiving data comprises measuring at least one arterial blood pressure waveform and identifying the at least one heart beat.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising subtracting the second standard deviation from the first standard deviation.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polynomial function is a first order polynomial function.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polynomial function is an n th order polynomial function.

11. An apparatus for determining a hemodynamic parameter, the apparatus comprising:

a communication interface;

a memory;

a processor; and

a module stored in the memory, executable by the processor, and configured to:

receive data associated with at least one heart beat;

calculate a first standard deviation for at least a portion of the data;

determine a polynomial function that fits the first standard deviation, the polynomial function being associated with at least one polynomial coefficient;

interpolate a second standard deviation for at least a second portion of the data, wherein the second standard deviation is interpolated by subtracting the polynomial function from the first standard deviation; and

determine the hemodynamic parameter based on multiplying a constant and a standard deviation of the second standard deviation to produce a first computation, and dividing the first computation by a mean of the first standard deviation.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a stroke volume variation, and wherein the data comprises blood pressure data.

13. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a pulse pressure variation, and wherein the data comprises pulse pressure data.

14. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a systolic pressure variation, and wherein the data comprises systolic pressure data.

15. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the hemodynamic parameter comprises a plethysmographic variability index, and wherein the data comprises pulse oximeter waveform data.

16. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the polynomial function is based on a least-squares function.

17. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the data associated with the at least one heart beat is measured from at least one arterial blood pressure waveform, and wherein the apparatus is further configured to identify the at least one heart beat from the received data.

18. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the apparatus is further configured to subtract the second standard deviation from the first standard deviation.

19. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the polynomial function is a first order polynomial function.

20. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the polynomial function is an n th order polynomial function.
