Methods and Algorithms for Processing Biomedical Signals in Assessing the Physiological Reserves of an Athlete

Ecology and Human Health: Medical Technology Aspects

“…An illustration of this is the report made by Tomchuk [4], which presented a "geometrical" approach to diag nosis of the functional state of the body. This approach involves presentation of data from different functional tests in normalized form.…”

“…The test stages differed in loading intensities. The author took the view that the area of the polygon obtained for each test served as an integral measure of functional reserves [4]. This method is akin to the cardiorhythmo gram "phase portrait" technique developed by Fleishman, which also involves analysis of the geometrical character istics of a figure obtained on a surface by sequential recording of two parameters (cardiac cycle duration and difference between neighboring cardiac cycles) [5].…”

“…Reports in the framework of the section Ecology and Human Health also addressed the problems of assessing external factors affecting sportsmen, using current tech nologies to evaluate the effectiveness and level of training, and introducing different means and techniques of phys ical exercise to increase the level of population health [4,17,18].…”
