In our research we analyse electrocardiograms (ECG). The aim of this research is to apply the fractal dimension computing method to electrocardiograms, i.e. to create an algorithm, due to which it would be possible to get a few parameters describing ECG. Then, to check, whether the created the mathematical model for computing fractal dimension classify the possessed data. According to Hausdorf “capacity dimension” we compute and analyze “capacity coefficient”. The research of the plane “capacity coefficient” was carried out in this work (it is a fractal dimension, which was computed at the fixed dimension of the iterational window). The computing algorithm was made, with the help of which the ECG plane capacity coefficient was computed for 300 persons. When the initial information on the examined persons is known, the results are tried to be assessed from the mathematical, as well as medical, point of view.

Functional human organism changes during physical load is a sequence of complex interrelated processes. The optimum flow of these changes that enables one to adequately adapt oneself to the intensity and specific character of the load performed without causing harmful consequences for the athlete himself is the principal concern of sport medicine doctors and sport scientists and is of special importance in functional diagnostics too. A frequent phenomenon among athletes is overtraining (de–adaption) that can be caused by the absence of proper balance between training load and recovery, as well as by training sessions that are too frequent and too long and by additional tension due to a forthcoming contest or due to other causes. Therefore assessment of functional possibilities of the athlete’s body is important. We consider the human organism an adaptable, complex and dynamic system capable of organizing itself, though there is none, the only one, factor inside the system capable of doing this job. Making use of the automatic ECG analysis system “Kaunas – Load”, with parallel registration of ECG carrying out body motor characteristics (the working capacity developed), ABP or other processes characterizing haemodynamics enable one to reveal and evaluate the synergistic aspects of essential systems of the human organism what particularly extends the possibilities of functional diagnostics. The aim of the study was making use of the model of evaluation of the functional... [to full text]
