Heart Rate Variability and Changes in Blood Volume

Abstract

Combat casualty care requires that battlefield traumas be quickly and accurately assessed, and that patient's vital signs be continuously monitored to immediately detect small fluctuations that may have major implications for needed life-saving measures. Biomedical technologies are needed that will allow rapid initial assessment of the patient's condition and continuous monitoring of critical autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity.
