Popis: Thirty healthy males between 19 and 25 years of age were examined to develop a method for estimating the suprasegmental autonomic activity. Analysis of the data obtained revealed the most informative indices along with a factor that had positive correlations with the ergotropic autonomic activity indices and negative correlations with the trophotropic autonomic activity indices. This factor was termed the ergotropic activity index. The information content of this factor was analyzed in a thermal environment and clinically in 40 patients with autonomic crises. The effectiveness of this method was tested, and the method was judged to be sufficiently adequate for clinical practice. The procedure developed for estimating the suprasegmental autonomic activity was demonstrated to be a highly informative method for revealing the predominance of either ergotropic or trophotropic activity in healthy subjects and patients with autonomic dystonia and for forecasting heat tolerance in humans. This method can be used during physiological and neurophysiological observations and in clinical practice
