    Abstract:
    Provided an overview of materials on the history of the formation method ballistocardiography for diagnosis of cardiovascular disease, an assessment of its current status and prospects for further development. Investigation of the physiological changes in the myocardium by recording ballistocardiogram acquires greater relevance since the existing knowledge in the field of cardiac diagnosis were obtained using instruments that do not meet modern requirements. Although the results of previous studies and define the basic characteristics ballistocardiography nonetheless update and clarification of details in relation to the data obtained by the use of modern methods of measuring contractility of the myocardium, it is useful. The resumption of work on the development of reliable devices for ballistocardiography is an urgent task. Method ballistocardiography under military medicine may be used for the integrated assessment of the functional state of the cardiovascular system during clinical examination of servicemen during mass examinations of recruits, the selection of students in military schools, as well as in monitoring the hemodynamic status in a hospital.
