Blood Pressure Estimation Using Explainable Deep-Learning Models Based on Photoplethysmography

Anesth AnalgPublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

Our deep-learning model noninvasively estimates arterial pressure with high accuracy.

Study context

Population
Patients in neuroradiology and digestive surgery with arterial linemedian 2201 measurements per patient
Participants
117 patients
Comparison
Deep-learning model vs mean arterial pressure (MAP) baseline model
Outcome
Mean absolute error (MAE) of MAP vs arterial line
Methodological detailsdeep-learning model development, external test set
