Haemosync: A synchronisation algorithm for multimodal haemodynamic signals.

Background: Synchronous acquisition of haemodynamic signals is crucial for their multimodal analysis, such as dynamic cerebral autoregulation (DCA) analysis of arterial blood pressure (ABP) and transcranial Doppler (TCD)-derived cerebral blood velocity (CBv). Several technical problems can, however, lead to (varying) time-shifts between the different signals. These can be difficult to recognise and can strongly influence the multimodal analysis results.
