Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Monitoring vital signs is crucial for assessing a patient’s condition at every stage of medical care. However, monitoring critical vital signs, such as continuous blood pressure, often requires invasive sensors, which are impractical in pre-hospital or combat casualty care. Furthermore, traditional vital signs can sometimes only provide a partial view of a patient’s condition, as compensatory physiological mechanisms can mask underlying issues. Thus, improved methods are needed to capture continuous non-invasive data when treating traumatic medical conditions.
This Special Issue, titled “Biomedical Engineering Approaches for Non-Invasive Monitoring in Hypovolemia and Hypotension”, features original research papers and comprehensive reviews, highlighting novel methodologies and experimental validation of approaches to non-invasively track a patient’s clinical status. Topics of interest for this Special Issue include, but are not limited to, the following research areas:
- Continuous non-invasive vital sign measurement techniques during progressive hypotension, such as those associated with traumatic hemorrhage;
- Machine learning models for improved physiological tracking of a patient’s clinical condition using non-invasive vital sign measurements;
- Deep learning artificial intelligence techniques for estimating compensatory status or casualty triage state;
- Experimental verification and validation of non-invasive blood pressure measurement techniques;
- In vivo animal or clinical study analysis of advanced monitoring metrics for estimating physiological status.
Any methods or technologies may be considered relevant if they rely on non-invasive monitoring to provide continuous estimations of physiological status and show potential for application in hypotensive and/or hypovolemic patient management.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Bioengineering is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
