17、algorithmitself which is used for displaying PPV-values automatically andcontinuously on the CNAPsdevice.The goal of this study was thecomparison of manually calculated PPV values to PPV valuesderived automatically via the PPV algorithm of the CNAPsMonitorusing both invasive as well as non-invasive

18、blood pressure wave-forms as a basis.2.MethodsThe study protocol was approved by the ethics commission forhuman subjects(University Hospital Graz,Austria).All patients ortheir relatives were informed about the study when the patientwas included and could refuse the patients participation at anytime.

19、We studied 10 patients on the medical intensive care unitwho were all sedated,under vasopressor therapy(norepinephrine)and had sinus rhythm.Patients with obvious edema on the upperextremeties,especially the fingers,were not included in the study.Invasive arterial blood pressure(IBP)was monitored via

20、 a radialartery catheter(20G,Arterial Cannula,BD Critical Care SystemsLtd.,Singapore).Damping coefficient and natural frequency of thehydrostatic transducer system was tested using the fast flush test19.All patients were mechanically ventilated with an Evita XL(Drger,Germany)in the Biphasic Positive

21、 Airway Pressure(BiPAP)mode.Blood pressure signals only of patients without signs ofspontaneous breathing were examined since spontaneous respira-tion has been shown to be ineffective in producing reliablechanges in the arterial waveform to guide fluid management 20.The CNAPssystem(CNAPsMonitor 500,

22、CNSystems Medizin-technik AG,Graz,Austria)consists of a double finger cuff,a pressuretransducer mounted on the forearm and an upper-arm bloodpressure cuff for calibration.The principle of CNAPs,the“volumeclamp method”(or“vascular unloading technique”)was originallydeveloped by Pez 21 in the early 19

23、70s and further improved byFortin et al.22.A finger cuff encompassing two neighboringfingers(see Fig.1)is used for continuous non-invasive bloodpressure monitoring,one finger at a time with automatic switchesbetween fingers every 560 min(set to 30 min for this study asrecommended by the manufacturer

24、).An upper-arm blood pressurecuff derives the measurement of oscillometric blood pressure andserves for calibration of the device every 560 min(set to 15 min forthis study as recommended by the manufacturer).The CNAPsfinger cuff was placed contralaterally to theinvasive catheter.The CNAPsupper-arm c

25、uff was applied to thesame arm as the invasive catheter to eliminate possible pressuredifferences of the arms.While such pressure differences areunimportant when studying only PPV,they might affect compar-ing BP levels between IBP and CNAPsdirectly.IBP and CNAPstransducers were placed approximately

26、at the level of the heart.The CNAPsMonitor was connected to the patient monitor andzero-levelled as recommended by the manufacturer.CNAPsand IBP blood pressure waveforms were synchronouslydisplayed on the bedside patient monitor(Infinity Delta,Drger,Germany)and recorded using data acquisition softwa

27、re(DrgerDataGrabber)which allows the export of CNAPsand IBP systolic,diastolic and mean blood pressure values and the blood pressurewaveforms with a sampling rate of 100 Hz.All off-line dataanalyses were performed using MATLAB-based scripts(MatlabR2008b,The Math Works Inc.,Natick,MA,USA).So that all

28、 patients contribute equally to the results,all compar-ison analyses were based on the same number of PPV valuesper patient.For the manually calculated PPV values,the followingprocedure was performed:Using a random number generator,10 time periods of the waveform data were analyzed for each ofthe 10

29、 patients.At randomly generated points of time,the two bloodpressure waveforms were visually checked for artifacts at a length of38 heart beats.This number of heart beats was chosen because itis longer than 3 typical respiratory cycles.If both the invasive as wellas the non-invasive waveforms were v

30、isually considered artifact-free,the following procedure was performed:The“gold standard”reference PPV values were calculated by manually selecting threeconsecutive pulse pressure minima and maxima per mouse-click(see Fig.2)and using the standard formula as described in theliterature 10:PPV(PPmax?PP

31、min)/(PPmax+PPmin)/2?100%.ThePPVmanvalue was defined as the average PPV over these threeconsecutive respiratory cycles.PPVmanwas thus calculated retro-spectively based on the IBP and CNAPsblood pressure waveforms.For every patient,this procedure was repeated until 10 value pairs(PPVmanIBPand PPVmanC

32、NAP)were obtained over the same timeperiods(marked with their end time points T1?T10).These PPVmanvalues were compared to PPVautovalues whichwould have been displayed on the CNAPsMonitor at time pointsT1?T10.These PPVautovalues were retrospectively obtained usinga software extract provided by the ma

33、nufacturer.Basically,theproprietary PPV algorithm integrated into the CNAPsmonitorautomatically searches for the typical swing patterns in the bloodpressure waveform modulated by mechanical respiration.PPVvalues are computed by employing automated detection of pulsepressure minima and maxima and usi

37、 PPVautovalues,those at the time points T1?T10were extracted for compar-ison with PPVmanIBPand PPVmanCNAP.Thus,a total of 100 dataquadruplets were included into the analysis.The periods on which the manual and the automated PPV-values were derived were not completely identical:the manuallycalculated

40、(ii)to assess the reliability of theautomated CNAPs-PPV for clinical use,PPVautoCNAPwas comparedto the gold standard PPVmanIBP.StatisticalanalysiswasperformedusingMicrosoftOfficeExcel 2007(Microsoft Corporation,Redmond,WA)and SPSS forWindows(SPSS 17.0,Chicago,IL).Data are presented as mean7-standard
