Piezo Pulsometric Analysis of the Functional State of the Human Cardiovascular System

Abstract

The article expounds, with examples, how to apply the computer method of arterial piezo pulsometry designed to provide a rapid noninvasive test for the functional state and the nature of autonomic regulation of the cardiovascular (CV) system in patients varying in age and health status. The involvement and role were assessed for the contractile component of left ventricular (LV) myocytes as a universal muscle effector that ensures both the basic pumping function of the heart and the implementation of the autonomic regulation of heart contractions via peripheral neurohumoral mechanisms that maintain the optimal level of cardiac hemodynamics. The analysis was found to enhance the predictive value of early noninvasive pulsometric diagnosis of the individual functional state and the nature of the regulation of the human CV system during ontogeny. This knowledge helps identifying the risk that may threaten the evolutionary ability of the CV system to maintain a dynamic balance, self-regulation, and adaptation to changing environmental conditions and is associated with distorted homeostasis of the body.
