METHOD FOR ASSESSMENT OF FUNCTIONAL STATUS (DSI) Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A61B5/103 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to functional diagnostics with use computer posturographs, and can be used for qualitative assessment of the human body status. That is ensured by posturography testing of a person with reading off, recording and analysing the posturography data. It is followed with evaluating the total area of all instantaneous areas of sectors (IASs). Herewith the instantaneous area IASieHereIAA of each sector is determined as swept out consistently with each i+1 - vector in relation to the previous i-vector. Then the root-mean-square deviation (RMSDias) of the derived sequence of areas is calculated. That is followed with forming an integrated coefficient index of dynamic stabilisation by formula. In that specific case, to determine the instant area of sector IASi provided that linear and angular speeds vary simultaneously, the required data are revealed and evaluated. Then IASi is calculated by original formula. In that specific case, the value dispersion IAS - DiMnc is calculated with an interval 1 sec by moving average method by formula. And each value DiMnc is transformed into sound. That is ensured for generating a sine-wave audio signal at audio frequency calculated by mathematical formula. Herewith, pitch increase shows disturbed stabilisation of vertical position of the body. In that specific case, statokinesiogram is simultaneously animated. In that specific case, a dynamic stabilisation index DSI is presented as a diagram with a vertical scale 0 to 100%.

EFFECT: method enables more rapid and relatively simple periodic health examinations with obtaining data on personnel suitability in the beginning of a working day or shift by an average expert, to maintain on-site safety.
