Il monitoraggio cardiovascolare tramite sensori rappresenta una tecnologia avanzata che consente di acquisire, in modo continuo e non invasivo, una vasta gamma di parametri relativi al cuore e al sistema cardiovascolare. Grazie all’utilizzo del sensore Zephyr Bioharness 3.0, è stato possibile monitorare costantemente atleti impegnati in competizioni di calcio a 5, uno sport caratterizzato da intensi sforzi fisici e rapidi cambiamenti di ritmo, che possono sottoporre il sistema cardiocircolatorio a condizioni di forte pressione. Seguendo un protocollo sperimentale basato su quattro diverse fasi di attività (riscaldamento, attività agonistica, recupero e riposo), sono stati raccolti dati relativi alla frequenza cardiaca (Heart Rate, HR) e la frequenza respiratoria (Breathing Rate, BR) e al tracciato elettrocardiografico, permettendo di identificare variazioni significative nei parametri cardiovascolari in funzione dell’intensità dello sforzo fisico. L’obiettivo principale è stato quello di evidenziare eventuali anomalie e correlazioni tra i parametri fisiologici in diverse condizioni, con particolare attenzione alla prevenzione di problematiche cardiovascolari. I dati raccolti sono stati organizzati in un database strutturato, utile per l’analisi della salute cardiaca e respiratoria degli atleti, nonché per la valutazione delle loro prestazioni. I risultati hanno confermato che i sensori indossabili rappresentano soluzioni efficaci per ottimizzare le performance atletiche e garantire la sicurezza durante allenamenti e competizioni. L’analisi si completa con un approfondimento sul sistema cardiovascolare, illustrando l’anatomia del cuore, il ciclo cardiaco e il sistema di conduzione elettrica. Vengono inoltre fornite informazioni sull’elettrocardiogramma, essenziali per comprendere l’attività elettrica del cuore e identificare eventuali patologie.

Abstract
Advanced cardiovascular monitoring technologies enable the continuous and non-invasive acquisition of a wide range of parameters related to the heart and the cardiovascular system. Utilizing the Zephyr BioHarness 3.0 sensor, it was possible to continuously monitor athletes engaged in futsal competitions, a sport characterized by intense physical exertion and rapid changes in pace that place significant strain on the cardiovascular system. Following an experimental protocol structured into four distinct phases of activity (warm-up, competitive activity, recovery, and rest), data were collected on heart rate (HR), breathing rate (BR), and electrocardiographic tracings. This approach allowed for the identification of significant variations in cardiovascular parameters as a function of physical effort intensity. The primary objective was to highlight any anomalies and correlations among physiological parameters under different conditions, with a particular focus on preventing cardiovascular issues. The collected data were organized into a structured database, facilitating the analysis of the athletes' cardiac and respiratory health as well as the evaluation of their performance. The results confirmed that wearable sensors are effective solutions for optimizing athletic performance and ensuring safety during training and competitions. The study is complemented by an in-depth exploration of the cardiovascular system, covering the anatomy of the heart, the cardiac cycle, and the electrical conduction system. Additionally, it provides detailed information on the electrocardiogram (ECG), which is essential for understanding the heart's electrical activity and identifying potential pathologies.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
