Overview • What is cerebral autoregulation and how to measure it? • Multimodal pressure-flow analysis • Empirical Mode Decomposition and Hilbert-Huang Transform • Subsequent improvement • Demonstration
Perturbation Baseline Restored steady state Body as Servo-Mechansim Type Machine • Importance of corrective mechanisms to keep variables “in bounds.” • Healthy systems are self-regulated to reduce variability and maintain physiologic constancy. • Underlying notion of “constant,” “steady-state,” conditions. Walter Cannon 1929

Challenges of Cerebral Autoregulation Assessment • Blood pressure and cerebral blood flow velocity are often nonstationary and their interactions are nonlinear. • Need a new method that can analyze nonlinear and nonstationary signals. Novak V et al., Biomed Eng Online. 2004;3(1):39
Participants • 15 normotensive healthy subjects • age 40.2 ± 2.0 years • 20 hypertensive subjects • age 49.9 ± 2.0 years • 15 minor stroke subjects • 18.3 ± 4.5 months after acute onset • age 53.1 ± 1.6 years Novak V et al., Biomed Eng Online. 2004;3(1):39
Measurements • Blood pressure • Finger Photoplethysmographic Volume Clamp Method. • Blood flow velocities (BFV) from bilateral middle cerebral arteries (MCA) • Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound. Novak V et al., Biomed Eng Online. 2004;3(1):39

Summary: Original Version of MMPF Analysis • Regulation of BP-BFV dynamics is altered in both hemispheres in hypertension and stroke, rendering BFV dependent on BP. • The MMPF method provides high time and frequency resolution. • This method may be useful as a measure of cerebral autoregulation for short and nonstationary time series.
Limitations: Original Version of MMPF Analysis • Requires visual identification of key mode of physiologic time series • Mode mixing with original EMD analysis • Valsalva maneuver itself has certain risk
Subsequent Improvements of MMPF Analysis • Use Ensemble EMD (EEMD) Analysis • Resting-state MMPF Analysis • Selection of key mode related to respiration during resting-state condition • Comparison of phase shifts in multiple time scales • Implementation and automation of the method Wu, Z., et al.
