2 CARDIAC AUTONOMIC NEUROPATHY ASSESSMENT 5 AUTONOMIC ACTIVITY AUTONOMIC BALANCE - Sympathetic Balance Parasympathetic The sympathetic nervous system activates the fight-or-flight s. It activates the glands and organs that defend the body against attack. The sympathetic nervous system uses up energy and depletes the body.the parasympathetic nervous system controls the rest and digest s. The parasympathetic nervous system, when activated by rest, relaxation and happy thoughts, is essential for balanced living and for all healing Parasympathetic Balance Sympathetic Relaxation Sympathetic hypertonia Balance Stress Vagal E/I RATIO:.5 Expiration/Inspiration Ratio is a marker of cardiovagal VALSALVA RATIO:.25 Marker of baroreceptor sensitivity /5 RATIO:.26 Heart rate change during standing or tilt at 3 and 5 second Systolic Pressure Response to Standing: Marker of sympathetic adrenergic function. 4 mmhg Nervous System Borderline normal level of sympathetic and parasympathetic tone; Parasympathetic Response to Deep Breathing Normal Parasympathetic to stimulation; Sympathetic Response to Valsalva Maneuver Normal Sympathetic to stimulation; Active Standing Normal ANS to stimulation; Enhanced cardiovascular adaptation.

3 AUTONOMIC REGULATION ASSESSMENT AUTONOMIC PHYSICAL DYSREGULATION (PSI) =. PSI is an indicator of accumulative chronic physical stress. Physical stress can be caused by long-term exposure to negative factors in one`s life or physical illness. The way in which a person copes with physical stressors is a significant contributing factor to this process. When the stress becomes too great, the body will show signs of distress. ACCUMULATIVE MENTAL STRESS (MSI) = -.88 MSI is an indicator of accumulative mental stress. Mental stress can be caused by situations one has to cope with daily and the emotional states that result. The way in which a person copes with stressful events is a significant contributing factor to this process. When the stress becomes too great, the body will show signs of distress.
