Abstract

The distribution of the interval of the heart beat of 93 test persons of the 4 groups normal group, group with labile essential hypertension, group with apparantly vegetatively conditioned heart pain and group with angina pectoris syndrome in coronary sclerosis may be described with the help of log normal distributions. In the vegetative group a dependence of the distribution parameters was proved. The results of a linear discriminance analysis for the vegetative group and the group with coronary sclerosis as well as the unequivocal age dependence of sigma at first do not allow a differentiation significant for practice according to the results got up to now. The different age structure might be regarded as cause in the two groups, so that further investigations are necessary.
