Alarm systems for protecting vitally important functions of the human body: Methodology, concepts, and devices

ConclusionsPreservation of life and health of people in everyday life is a very important task of modern medicine. Prophylaxis of disorders of vitally important functions and timely medical aid are necessary to achieve the potentialities of modern medicine. To provide timely medical aid, it is necessary to develop devices for timely detection of disorders of physiological functions.The theory of functional systems studying the main mechanisms of maintenance of vitally important functions of the human body provided a challenge to the development of a new concept of medical engineering orientated toward everyday protection of life and health of people. Achievements of modern microprocessor technology have allowed this concept to be implemented in the medical devices described in this work.
