Predicting Arterial Stiffness with the aid of Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition(EEMD) Algorithm

摘要：

In this study, we propose an easy-to-use non-invasive arterial stiffness assessment instrument that can be used to record the radial arterial pressure signals from the wrist. The system combines the ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) algorithm with the signals to derive a modified reflection index (MRI). The performance of MRI was verified based on 42 subjects (33 men and 9 women, 20 to 27 years of age). Early self-monitoring of cardiovascular dysfunction and arterial stiffness can be easily and effectively achieved by MRI because only few minutes are needed for conducting at home.
