1. An apparatus for assessing the functional state of a subject under test, comprising:
- a plurality of data collection units each including a user interface and a processing logic, the data collection processing logic permitting a user to request one or more functional state test from the group of test including;
heart rate variability test,differential ECG test,brain wave test,jump test, andstimulus response test;
a processing server configured for location at a distance from each of the data collection units and couplable through a network connection to the data collection units;
wherein the processing server includes processing logic that receives test requests and corresponding collected data from a data collection unit and performs the one or more requested functional state tests to produce a signal for that given test that is representative of a textual conclusion of the functional state of a body system that that test is designed to assess.

Abstract
An apparatus and method for distributed, non-invasive assessment of the functional state and state of adaptive response of a subject under test. The functional state tests may include heart rate variability, differential ECG, omega brain wave, jump and stimulus response tests. A plurality of data collection (and result display) units are provided, and collected data is propagated over the internet or another network to a centralized processing computer that performs the functional state assessments and returns the results.

11. A method of assessing the functional state of a subject under test, comprising the steps:
-
receiving at a data collection unit located at a first physical location one or more functional state test requests from the group of physical state tests including; heart rate variability test, differential ECG test, brain wave test, jump test, and stimulus response test; propagating from the data collection unit via a network connection the received one or more test requests and corresponding collected data to a processing computer located at a second physical location, spaced from the first location; conducting at the processing computer the one or more requested functional state tests and generating a test results signal for each conducted test; propagating from the processing computer to the data collection unit the test result signal for each conducted test; and presenting the test results in a readable manner to a user at the data collection unit. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
