A vast amount of works is devoted to studying the heart rate variability (HRV). The article covers a literature review on modern concepts about heart rate variability as a method for estimation of mechanisms of physiological functions regulation in a human body, standard methods of the analysis and opportunities of clinical application. The heart rhythm is the indicator of the deviations arising in vegetative nervous system, and change of heart rhythm — the earliest prognostic sign of many diseases. In clinical practice, the analysis of HRV finds wider application in basic diseases in gastroenterological practice (gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcer, irritable bowel syndrome), interaction of compartments of the vegetative nervous system in various gastroenterological pathologies. Patients with different pathologies of digestive system are examined using the up-to-date Precise-diagnostics to determine adaptive and vegetative disorders in State Institution “Institute of Gastroenterology of Medical Sciences of Ukraine”. Precise-diagnostics defines stress level and possible risk to predict complications in patients with gastrointestinal diseases. The treatment using the virtual reality is used for patients with revealed disorders. The Precise-diagnostics uses a unique cloud-based algorithm to quickly analyze an ECG interpretation and produces within seconds a detailed report based on HRV аnalysis and the full range of the standardized Minnesota Code classification system for electrocardiographic findings. Cloud and the PRECISE Report are the latest medical innovations developed and being brought to market by Precise Cardiology Limited. They are unique detailed cloud-based electrocardiogram instant interpretation products aimed initially at the GP and medical diagnostic companies but with wider potential beyond including artificial intelligence enhancement.
