Event-Related Telemetry of Heart Rate for Personalized Remote Monitoring of Cognitive Functions and Stress under Conditions of Everyday Activity
The aim of the study is to characterize a new information and telecommunication technology — event-related of the heart rate telemetry — for remote monitoring of cognitive functions and stress conditions in the context of everyday activity.
Results. A new technology of event-related telemetry of the heart rate has been developed and characterized in terms of the cognitive function monitoring. The optimal architecture of this system provides for continuous monitoring of the patient’s functional state in the context of sensorimotor activity while controlling the features of information images in the virtual computer environment. Errors in this control function are considered to objectively reflect the primary cognitive functions and sensorimotor coordination. The possibility of using such multilevel psychophysiological monitoring throughout the everyday life activity is discussed.
Conclusion. A novel automated expert system — event-related telemetry — has been developed; this includes hardware, algorithmic and software Internet resources for detecting the early signs of stress and cognitive function impairment in the real time mode, without restricting person’s mobility and without attracting his/her attention to the measurement process.
