Computational model-based assessment of baroreflex function from response to Valsalva maneuver

Abstract: Functional metrics of autonomic control of heart rate, including baroreflex sensitivity, have been shown to be strongly associated with cardiovascular risk. A decrease in baroreflex sensitivity with aging is hypothesized to represent a contributing causal factor in the etiology of primary hypertension. To assess baroreflex function in human subjects, two complementary methods to simulate the response in heart rate elicited by the Valsalva maneuver were developed and applied to data obtained from a cohort of he… Show more

“…A real heart would obviously be subject to autonomic control. Although beyond the scope of this work, it will be possible to reproduce autonomic control in future research by implementing a virtual baroreceptor ( Kosinski et al, 2018 ). This could be done by monitoring the arterial blood pressure predicted by the model and adjusting the heart-rate in order to maintain pressure within pre-set limits.…”

“…Several deterministic mathematical models have been proposed to explain the autonomic response to the VM. These can be split into the following two categories: 1) closed-loop models simulating blood pressure and heart rate dynamics simultaneously (30,37,40,59) and 2) open-loop models that either take blood pressure as an input and compute heart rate as an output or take heart rate as an input and compute blood pressure as an output (10,35). In this study, we pursue the open-loop approach, predicting changes in heart rate in response to the VM.…”

“…Numerous techniques exist for assessing baroreflex function based on measuring responses to externally imposed changes in pressure. For example, the Valsalva maneuver elicits a drop in transmural pressures in the aortic arch and carotid arteries, generating a reflex-mediated increase in HR, which may be analyzed by a variety of mathematical techniques (39). Studies in animals and humans have also used administration of vasodilators and vasoconstrictors to bring about arterial pressure and corresponding HR changes to assess the baroreflex response (40,41).…”

“…Data on RR interval — RR( t ), HR =1/RR — were compared with predictions from a linear filter similar to the model used by Kosinski et al ( 39 ) analyzing the autonomic response to the Valsalva maneuver in human subjects. Using the MAP data as an input, the model assumes that the RR interval determined by the autonomic baroreflex is captured by the first-order linear filter:…”
