Electrical bio-impedance measurement has great potential in many biomedical applications including vein graft surveillance. Studies have shown that thrombosis was
the major cause of the vein graft failure. The meticulous skills of the surgeon and effective postoperative surveillance of vein graft remain the cornerstones of clinical
success in the current surgical management of vein graft survival. Vascular blood flow is
the key clinical indicators for the evaluation of patency of the vein graft and ensuring the
patient’s quality of life. In this work, electrical bio-impedance method has been proposed
as an alternative to the existing surveillance method as it is non-invasive, portable, easy
applicable in practice, fast response, radiation free, and required only low-cost
instrumentation. It was employed to measure pulsatile changes in longitudinal
bio-impedance to quantify arterial blood flow and blood volume. We expect that by
measuring the changes in tissue bio-impedance which can be used to evaluate important peripheral hemodynamic, it allows the detection of early stage stenosis within vascular and vein graft as well as estimate its severity with predetermined normative data provided.
