[The influence of individually fitted controlled breathing frequency on the heart rate variability indexes]

We studied the changes in indexes of variability of heart rate and fractal neurodynamics under conditions of controlled breathing on fluctuation frequency of a spectrum of heart rate. It is shown that the controlled breathing, which frequency corresponds to a frequency of localization of the maximum peak of capacity ofa heart rate in low-frequency is a powerful mechanism of management of heart rate and change of a functional condition of an organism as a whole.
