Validation of a Non-invasive Inverse Problem-Solving Method for Stroke Volume.

ABSTRACT: Stroke volume (SV) is a major biomarker of cardiac function, reflecting ventricular-vascular coupling. Despite this, hemodynamic monitoring and management seldomly includes assessments of SV and remains predominantly guided by brachial cuff blood pressure (BP). Recently, we proposed a mathematical inverse-problem solving method for acquiring non-invasive estimates of mean aortic flow and SV using age, weight, height and measurements of brachial BP and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV). This approach relies on the adjustment of a validated one-dimensional model of the systemic circulation and applies an optimization process for deriving a quasi-personalized profile of an individual's arterial hemodynamics. Following the promising results of our initial validation, our first aim wa
