CONCLUSION

Prof. Dr. Svetoslav Danev developed and implemented in the practice several original HRV-based tests. These tests enrich the opportunity to obtain a more deep insight in the psycho-physiological health status of the both ill and healthy people. On this topic he has published more than 100 scientific reports. Many others scientific reports were also published, which were devoted to the usefulness and application of HRV for health risk assessment (published in Europe, USA, Japan, Israel).

As Prof. Dr. Svetoslav Danev has been working in this area for more than 25 years, and he is one of its founders (he was the first president of the European society for HRV analysis), Dantest comprises the essence of the HRV knowledge accumulated till now.

Statistically important correlation was discovered between the HRV parameters and other basic clinical and paraclinical investigations and research. This has proved the existence of an important relation between the results obtained by Dantest and certain clinical, laboratory, physiological, and psychological examinations. Dantest, however, possesses the advantage of higher informativeness and easier practical application and execution.

It was proved that individuals with higher values of health risk (according to Dantest) in several years are more likely to develop different pathological processes when compared to control check-ups.
