This study introduces a new hybrid algorithm for accurately locating the dicrotic notch in arterial pressure waveforms. The algorithm uses rule-based logic to overcome challenges in automated, real-time biomedical signal processing.

Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Signal Processing
  • Cardiovascular Physiology
  • Digital Signal Processing

Background:

  • The dicrotic notch in arterial pressure waveforms is crucial for hemodynamic assessment but difficult to localize automatically.
  • Existing algorithms struggle with the notch's high-frequency nature, variable contour, and shifting location due to physiological factors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a reliable and accurate automated method for real-time dicrotic notch localization.
  • To address the complexities of distinguishing the notch from noise and adapting to waveform variations.

Main Methods:

  • Reviewed and implemented various published algorithms for dicrotic notch detection.
  • Developed a novel hybrid algorithm integrating multiple algorithmic approaches.
  • Utilized rule-based logic to select the optimal detection method based on waveform features.
