Assessing blood flow control through a bootstrap method

IEEE Trans Biomed Eng. 2004 Jul;51(7):1284-6. doi: 10.1109/TBME.2004.827947.

Abstract

In order to assess blood flow control, the relationship between blood pressure and blood flow can be modeled by linear filters. We present a bootstrap method, which allows the statistical analysis of an index of blood flow control that is obtained from constrained system identification using an established set of pre-defined filters.
