Chapter 5 A B C D Figure 5 Bland-Altman plots showing the difference (y-axis) against the average (x- axis) of uncorrected and corrected parameter values for mean (X) and systolic (O) NVC responses for the parameters! (A), (B), Tv (C) and K (D). To determine whether a parameter value for an individual measurement changed significantly after blood pressure correction for each measurement for each parameter 95% confidence bounds of parameter estimation were calculated using equation 4. Per individual measurement parameters with non-overlapping confidence bounds, being a strict criterion, are considered significantly different. Table 3 shows for each NVC parameter the percentage of RG and RGCA model estimations for which 95% confidence bounds do not overlap and therefore changed significantly after correction for blood pressure. 90
