Abstract

A long-term eco-medical monitoring was undertaken from 2009 through 2011 as part of the MARS-500 satellite project. One of its major objectives was to conduct field testing of innovative technologies for assessment of human physiological status. The monitoring protocol represented a replica of that in the experiment with 520-day isolation. Heart Wizard Mars-500 is a telemedical health assessment system based on heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Prenosology diagnosis using Heart Wizard Mars-500 has been tested in the United States and Canada. Prenosology monitoring is aimed predominantly to estimate the potential risks of maladaptation. Our results further validate diagnostic comprehensiveness of HRV analysis, in particular, during long-term systematic health monitoring, and when functional HRV tests results are compared and contrasted with entries in the health and lifestyle questionnaire. Heart Wizard Mars-500 is a simple and easy system for home use. Individual prenosology monitoring to assess the dynamics of personal functional state and detect potential risk factors may inspire personal changes in the way of life and, thus, improve one’s health and life quality.
