The study is to explore the relationship between coefficient of variation of harmonic magnitude (HCV) and different organ failures among those critically ill patients. In the future, we can act as a warning system on patients with multiple organ failures or terminal illness, also as an indicator of treatment effect.

Our study is to measure the coefficient of variation of the HCV of the radial arterial pulse among ICU patients with multiple organ failures (MOF). Patients admitted to Taoyuan General Hospital were recorded during the 6 months study.

RECRUITINGCoefficient of variation of harmonic magnitude
We measure the blood pressure of participants with multiple organ failures (MOF) by pressure transducer during the 6 months study in the ICU of Taoyuan General Hospital. The radial artery pressure pulse of both hands are recorded with a pressure transducer fixed on the skin with tape and an adjustable belt with a small button to achieve suitable pressure.
