Abstract

Meteosensitivity as a phenomenon in modern medicine, in most cases, is a subject of the empirical findings based more on subjective patientsā?? data. This is primarily due to the fact that medical science has no common valid quantitative tools to objectively define trigger factors and the degree of meteosensitivity. At the same time, experimental science has enough tools and methods to fix this problem. We developed a telemetric system of simultaneous observation over cardiovascular functional parameters and heliogeophysical data. This system includes web interface designed in the form of personal user accounts, synchronized with a portable cardiac monitor. Its algorithm includes the following procedure: 1. Monitoring of the functional state of a person through the indexes of the heart rate variability with the frequency of assessments depending on the specific task. 2. Data synchronization by means of using the interface of VedaPulse Online local software with the database of personal accountsā?? web interface. 3. Determining of the geographical location of the assessment, as well as astronomical time of assessment. 4. Downloading of the heliogeophysical data from public databases all over the world. 5. Formation of a mathematical model that evaluates the degree of connection between the parameters of HRV and geophysical data. 6. Designing of the graphical connection model, as well as text analysis and detection of the trigger factor with the greatest biotropic effect. 7. Creation of the forecast in the form of graphical trend of connection between the trigger factor and parameters that assess functional state of a person. 8. Developed web service is a practical tool for the individual with meteosensitivity to optimize his activity and a research tool for conducting multicenter studies to evaluate biotropic effects of the heliogeophysical factors.

Biography

Oleg Sorokin is the Novosibirsk State Medical University graduate in ā??General medicineā? (2000). He began his scientific career in the Laboratory of Helio climate pathology, where he was undergoing clinical fellowship on ā??Internal diseasesā? (Therapy) under the jurisdiction of the Scientific center of the clinical and experimental medicine of the Siberian branch of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences. In 2004 he passed PhD defense with a degree in immunology, physiology. For 15 years he has been teaching at the department of Normal Physiology at the Novosibirsk State Medical University as an Assistant Professor. He had been working as a Dean of the junior faculties at the Faculty of General medicine of Novosibirsk State Medical University for 4 years. He used to be a leader of the NSMU medical engineering group. Since 2006, he has been a CEO of Biokvant Ltd., which is involved in developing, manufacturing and sales of the medical equipment including VedaPulseā?¢ device for functional diagnosis. He has more than 70 printed works in peer-reviewed scientific journals in the sphere of electrophysiology, including 2 monographs.
