  • System for the analysis of the daily heart rhythm autonomic nervous system balance
    Patent number: 10342474
    Abstract: The present invention collects data on circadian intervals between two cardiac contractions (RR intervals) and, on the basis of the collected data on circadian RR intervals, provides a system for analysis of the human circadian heart rhythm autonomic nervous system balance, and analysis of heart rate (HR). The invention focuses on HR fluctuations that are divided into three groups: slow fluctuations of the circadian period, higher frequencies compared with circadian, and chaotic. The division into parts is executed by applying adequate empiric and mathematical methods to determine a series of envelope curves, closely and individually related to the principal circadian series, followed by their separation from the input HR series, and then applying HR variability (HRV) methods to increase accuracy of the analysis of HRV results and add new HR regulation criteria to the analysis outcomes.

  • Frontal sole exercise device
    Patent number: 5461799
    Abstract: An exercise device for strengthening the muscles and ligaments of the feet, legs and lower torso. The device comprises a platform element, front and rear securing straps, a footbed and a tractive sole. The rear securing straps are attached substantially below the upper level of the platform element, helping to preclude inadvertent egress from the device while in use. The front securing straps are for substantially securing the forward portion of the foot to the device. In a preferred embodiment, the exercise device comprises a longitudinal upper strap, a radial lower strap and a mid strap for maintaining the foot securely in the exercise device.
