Causal interaction analysis of cardiovascular signals
Tiurina, Mariia ; Kolářová, Jana (referee) ; Svačinová, Jana (advisor)
Application of the non-invasive methods to detection of the baroreflex sensitivity is a correct way to evaluate the functions of cardiovascular system. This master’s thesis describes the theoretical informations about the problem of baroreflex sensitivity from anatomical, patalogical and clinical views. Theoretical knowledges are foundation for mathematical description of some methods to detection of baroreflx sensitivity in time, frequency and information dimensions. In the practical part of the master’s theses are presented two methods of BRS detection – sequence method based on finding the specific sequences of time series signals and method of application bivariante autoregressive model. Both of methods are implemented in MATLAB. The results of testing data on real data are discussed.

Polygraphic measurement of stress
Faltýnková, Květoslava ; Kolář, Radim (referee) ; Bubník, Karel (advisor)
This work deals with polygraphic measurement of stress. The paper describes the physiological manifestations of stress induced as a result of false answers to the question and ways to measure these phenomena. It focuses mainly on changes in heart rate, blood pressure, respiration and skin resistance. It is designed to work in the block diagram of polygraph, described the course of measurement and evaluation. The work is also mention of lie detection using EEG.

The Sport Activity Digital Recorder
Raninec, Michal ; Žák, Jaromír (referee) ; Macháň, Ladislav (advisor)
This paper discuss the design of multifunctional device used as the digital recorder for sport activity. The general aim is to explore theory issues, construct the device and develope software for the application. Components were chosen considering low weight and power consumption and with as accurate tracking as possible.

ECG monitor in LabVIEW
Pavlišta, Libor ; Kolář, Radim (referee) ; Harabiš, Vratislav (advisor)
The main purpose of this work is to get know about ECG signal, its genesis and relationship between mechanical and electrical part of the heart. Furthermore about the detailed disassembly of parts, for example of QRS complex, the determination of faulty statuses, the calculation of heartbeat frequence. We will take a look into the patient's monitors. We will get know about the measuring of ECG signal and how to treat the input signal to eliminate the undesirable components of signal, for example unwanted network noise - so-called network brum. We will study the concept of simple monitoring system with th draft of necessary filter in LabView program. We will construct alarms for some cardiac abnormalities, such as premature heart contractions. We will calculate heart rate. We will retrieve of data from an external source and we will prepare the appropriate graphical user interface.

PPG signal quality assessment and heart rate estimation
Vargová, Enikö ; Vítek, Martin (referee) ; Němcová, Andrea (advisor)
This work deals with photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals, their processing, quality assessment, estimation of heart rate from PPG signals and the ability to record biological signals with smartphones. The aim of this work is to record PPG signals using a smartphone and reference ECG signals using an ECG recorder. The work also includes the design of two algorithms, one for signal quality assessment and the other for heart rate estimation from PPG signals.

Effect of stress on pilot performance
Dedinský, Miroslav ; Zikmund, Pavel (referee) ; Šplíchal, Miroslav (advisor)
The main goal of this diploma thesis is to find out whether it is possible to measure stress during piloting. If so, it would be possible to develop systems that could help pilots in stressful situations and thus alleviate the stress, this would have great impact and possitively improve work performance. There are few similar studies in the field, the stress factors that affect the pilots and what physiological changes are observable in such situations. Finally, an experimental measurement is performed during three flights, which is aimed to demonstrate the information obtained and thus the possibility of measuring stress and the metod to do so.

Cardiotachometer
Čech, Jakub ; Sekora, Jiří (referee) ; Čech, Petr (advisor)
Master’s thesis deals with theme of heartbeats. Monitoring and evaluation of heartbeat is important for diagnostician cardiac dysfunction. First part of thesis is focused on anatomical description of heart and his operation. Another part is description of electrical activity of the heart and methods of capture. There is also mention of the cardiac rhythm and its disorders. One of the principal objective of this thesis is to study methods for sensing heart rate. These methods are analyzed and then selected a particular method for further solutions. The core thesis is to design functional cardiotachometer. Cardiotachometer derives the heart rate signal from phonocardiographical signal, which is acoustic manifestation of heart. Implementation takes place in the Labview, which is graphical programming environment. Suggested the device measures the current and average heart rate and the addition of HRV analysis in time domain.

HRV analysis in the context of daily activities
Indrák, Václav ; Smital, Lukáš (referee) ; Novotná, Petra (advisor)
The aim of this bachelors thesis is to measure ECG recordings on voulenteers, and following analysis of HRV from these recordings. It persues the explanation of basic metrics used to evaluate HRV, used both in clinical and scientific practice and their following programming implementation in Matlab environment to achieve the most accurate results possible, which are than assessed.

Methods for the evaluation of heart rate and arterial blood pressure variability
Sedláčková, Gabriela ; Halámek, Josef (referee) ; Leinveber, Pavel (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with methods for description of heart rate variability and arterial blood pressure. An important mechanism for maintaining homoeostasis in the body is so called baroreflex feedback loop, which allows for a short-term regulation of blood pressure. The thesis contains description of methods which are currently used for baroreflex sensitivity evaluation. Analysis in time domain as well as in frequency domain was done using programs in Matlab environment. At the end of the thesis the influence of ventricular extrasystoles on output parameter is evaluated.

Heart rate changes during walking and running
Smolinský, Dominik ; Kozumplík, Jiří (referee) ; Kolářová, Jana (advisor)
This bachelor thesis is concerned with monitoring dynamic changes in heart rate during walking and running. The heart rate is calculated from the QRS complexes of the ECG signal. The aim of this thesis is to summarize the theoretical knowledge and then make measurements of individuals from 2 groups, fit athletes and less fit athletes. Thus, the theoretical part is discussed first, where all the information regarding the cardiovascular system, heart rate and HRV are described. The second part of the thesis is practical and deals with specific measurements, their processing and statistic analysis. It also describes the basic equipment and measurement protocol.
