摘要:
A system for determining a hemodynamic status of an individual may include a photoplethysmography (PPG) sub-system configured to detect a PPG signal and a response triggering module configured to analyze the PPG signal and output one or more response triggers based on a changing feature of the PPG signal within a time window. Each of the one or more response triggers may relate to an instruction to initiate detection of at least one physiological characteristic of the individual. A blood pressure (BP) variability index determination module is configured to determine a BP variability index related to a hemodynamic status of the individual based on a frequency or pattern of the one or more response triggers.
