Controls. The curve of the systolic (pink line) and diastolic (black lines) time variation as a function of heart rate in 3 controls (upper and middle panels males, lower panel female). The parameters are acquired as instantaneous values at baseline and during stress. In normal healthy volunteer subjects performing bicycle exercise, the observed duration of diastole was greater than systole up to 160 beats per minute. The data can be also remotely read by a telemetric connection.
