Many cardiovascular and neural diseases remain undetected until the
symptoms are stressed. Early diagnosis and the corresponding
treatment would mean a better quality of life for the patient and a
more effective and cost saving health care system for the society.
This dissertation summarizes the results of the research work in
two fields. The first is the analysis of human movement in order to
objectively diagnose and assess the actual state of patients with
neural diseases. The score of a patient performing movement
patterns is influenced also by the central nervous system not only
by the muscles. This is the reason why detailed analysis of
finger-, hand- and arm movements can reveal neural diseases and
also help determine the actual state of patients. This latter could
be helpful to set the optimal medication. The research work led by
me has resulted in a better understanding of human movements and
made possible to define the measurement technique and feature
extraction algorithms necessary to quantify the performance during
movement. The second field in which the dissertation gives valuable
results aims at a more reliable self blood pressure measurement.
