Abstract:
BIOCOS, the project aimed at studying BIOlogical systems in their COSmos, has obtained
a great deal of expertise in the fields of blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) monitoring and of
marker rhythmometry for the purposes of screening, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Prolonging
the monitoring reduces the uncertainty in the estimation of circadian parameters; the current
recommendation of BIOCOS requires monitoring for at least 7 days. The BIOCOS approach consists
of a parametric and a non-parametric analysis of the data, in which the results from the individual
subject are being compared with gender- and age-specified reference values in health.
Chronobiological designs can offer important new information regarding the optimization of
treatment by timing its administration as a function of circadian and other rhythms.
New technological developments are needed to close the loop between the monitoring of blood
pressure and the administration of antihypertensive drugs.
