title: [Integration of the Aasalid test in an online measurement system for evaluating cerebral autoregulation].
abstract: An important question during the intensive care of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and craniocerebral trauma is the evaluation of the cerebral autoregulation (CA). The so called Aaslid-Test is a standard method which allows the cerebral autoregulation to be classified. As the results under repetitive conditions show a high variation, it has not been yet possible to draw statistically proved conclusions concerning the performance of the CA. To improve the test results the measuring conditions are discussed and systematized. The algorithms of the Aaslid-Test have been implemented to an online measuring system. The error bandwidth has been estimated. To avoid systematically occurring errors an enhanced measuring protocol is provided.
