Design of an embedded PID controller applied to blood pressure control

Area of Science:

• Biomedical Engineering
• Clinical Monitoring
• Control Systems

Background:

• Hypertension necessitates strict blood pressure control, especially during and after surgical procedures.
• Manual blood pressure monitoring is labor-intensive, prone to errors, and can lead to inconsistent patient care.
• Optimizing patient care requires accurate and timely blood pressure management, particularly in critical perioperative phases.

Purpose of the Study:

• To design and implement an automated system for precise blood pressure management.
• To integrate a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller for enhanced blood pressure regulation.
• To improve patient care by minimizing manual monitoring and detecting anomalies efficiently.

Main Methods:

• Development of an embedded PID controller algorithm for blood pressure regulation.
• Integration of the PID controller into an automated patient monitoring system.
• Validation of the system's efficacy in managing blood pressure levels.

Main Results:

• The automated system demonstrated effective blood pressure control.
• The embedded PID controller accurately adjusted blood pressure, reducing variability.
• The system aided in anomaly detection and optimized patient care processes.

Conclusions:

• The proposed automated system with an embedded PID controller offers a reliable solution for critical blood pressure management.
• This technology can significantly improve patient safety and care quality in surgical settings.
• Automated monitoring reduces human error and enhances the efficiency of clinical interventions.
