Key result
ArterialNet improves ABP reconstruction with ~58% lower standard deviation than existing techniques.
Why the study?
Current non-invasive techniques reconstructing continuous ABP waveforms from pulsatile signals derive inaccurate SBP/DBP and are sensitive to individual variability.
Does the ArterialNet deep learning framework accurately reconstruct continuous arterial blood pressure waveforms and estimate SBP/DBP from non-invasive wearable pulsatile signals?

ArterialNet demonstrates the feasibility of accurately reconstructing continuous arterial blood pressure waveforms and deriving SBP/DBP from non-invasive wearable signals, offering potential for both ICU and remote hemodynamic monitoring.
May inform preclinical wearable ABP monitoring; leaves open human validation before clinical use.
Goal: Continuous arterial blood pressure (ABP) waveform is invasive but essential for hemodynamic monitoring. Current non-invasive techniques reconstruct ABP waveforms with pulsatile signals but derived inaccurate systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP/DBP) and were sensitive to individual variability. Methods: ArterialNet integrates generalized pulsatile-to-ABP signal translation and personalized feature extraction using hybrid loss functions and regularizations. Results: ArterialNet achieved a root mean square error (RMSE) of 5.41 -+ 1.35 mmHg on MIMIC-III, achieving 58% lower standard deviation than existing signal translation techniques. ArterialNet also reconstructed ABP with RMSE of 7.99 -+ 1.91 mmHg in remote health scenario. Conclusion: ArterialNet achieved superior performance in ABP reconstruction and SBP/DBP estimations with significantly reduced subject variance, demonstrating its potential in remote health settings. We also ablated ArterialNet's architecture to investigate contributions of each component and evaluated ArterialNet's translational impact and robustness by conducting a series of ablations on data quality and availability.
