ABSTRACT:
A disposable, multi-purpose cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy testing device which comprises a tubular body having a distal end, a proximal end and a passageway extending therebetween; at least one ECG electrode disposed on the exterior surface of the tubular body for monitoring ECG signals of a patient holding the tubular body; a breathing sensor attached to the tubular body for monitoring breathing through the passageway; a closure mechanism attached to the tubular body for selectively restricting the passageway; and a pressure monitor attached to the tubular body for confirming when a pre-determined pressure has been established in the passageway; whereby the testing device can be used to conduct (i) metronomic breathing tests, (ii) Valsalva maneuver tests, and (iii) HRV standing tests.
