Multi-Channel Bioimpedance System for Detecting Vascular Tone in Human Limbs: An Approach

Abstract: Vascular tone plays a vital role in regulating blood pressure and coronary circulation, and it determines the peripheral vascular resistance. Vascular tone is dually regulated by the perivascular nerves and the cells in the inside lining of blood vessels (endothelial cells). Only a few methods for measuring vascular tone are available. Because of this, determining vascular tone in different arteries of the human body and monitoring tone changes is a vital challenge. This work presents an approach for determini… Show more

“…Further, to evaluate lung blood flow, we used the following parameters: RI—rheographic index of the right pulmonary arterial system, which indirectly indicates the level of blood filling into the pulmonary artery during right ventricle blood output; DCI—dicrotic index, which is an indirect indication of the vascular tone in pulmonary artery large vessels; and DSI—diastolic index, which helps to characterize the ratio of venous drainage to arterial blood supply in the right lung [ 35 ]. While no changes were found in RI between the face immersion attempts, DCI and DSI were significantly lower during the face submersion at attempts #1 and #2 but not at attempt #3 ( Table 2 ).…”

“…A relative index of skin capillary blood flow in the left index finger was recorded by a photoplethysmogram (PPG). The pulmonary artery rheogram was recorded by the impedance method for the investigation of right pulmonary artery blood flow (RPABF) [ 35 , 57 , 58 ], and the following physiological parameters were used for the evaluation: stroke output (SO, mL), rheographic index (RI, Ohm; reflects the lung tissue blood filling), dicrotic index (DCI, %; reflects the vascular tone of resistant vessels of the pulmonary artery system), and diastolic index (DSI, %; reflects the ratio of venous drainage to arterial blood supply).…”

“…Bioimpedance methods such as impedance plethysmography (IPG) and impedance cardiography (ICG) are non‐invasive, convenient and low‐cost methods widely used for several different diagnosis purposes, including vascular and cardiovascular diseases 6,7,8,9,10 . Shash et al investigated the effect of vascular diseases such as stenosis and aneurysm on the bioimpedance measurements by developing simple mathematical models 11 .…”

“…The results showed a correlation between the aforementioned diseases with the measured bioimpedance in the β dispersion range frequency to differentiate between normal and diseased blood vessels. Hammoud et al presented an approach to determine the vascular tone type and its temporal and spatial changes in all segments of human limbs 12 . The approach shows the potential of a multi‐channel system in providing information about blood circulation through different arteries.…”
