Max Pulse Medicore
Included in Premium measurementMax Pulse in Prague adds a cardiovascular and autonomic layer to InBody. A short non-invasive finger measurement helps describe pulse wave shape, vascular elasticity, heart rate variability, stress load and recovery context.

Overview
Max Pulse works with non-invasive heart rate variability, vascular condition and stress-load assessment. For clients, the key point is that this is not another body-composition test: it reads pulse-wave and heart-rhythm signals.
The actual Max Pulse device used for testing with a finger probe.
The APG and PPG layer works with pulse-wave morphology. The output describes wave type, arterial elasticity (AE), peripheral elasticity (PE) and vascular condition indicators.
The HRV layer follows beat-to-beat interval variation. Max Pulse uses it for physical stress, mental stress, fatigue and stress-resilience indicators.
The output separates sympathetic and parasympathetic activity. In simple terms, this is the balance between activation and recovery.
The output includes average heart rate, pulse-wave analysis and rhythm warnings. Suspicious findings belong with a physician.
Process
The test is short, non-invasive and done at rest. The device uses a PPG finger probe: optical sensing of blood-volume changes during the cardiac cycle.
The display and printout combine vascular, stress and history views.
The cleanest reading comes after a short quiet period. Sitting calmly and not talking helps the signal stabilize.
The specification places the PPG probe on the left index finger. The finger should not have anything that blocks optical sensing.
Max Pulse records the pulse wave and beat intervals. Movement, talking or forced breathing can distort the result.
The output separates vascular data, stress/HRV data and history. Repeat testing under similar conditions is the most useful.
Results
Unlike a simple blood-pressure reading, Max Pulse combines several layers. The numbers make the most sense when read together and in context.
Vascular result sheet with pulse wave and elasticity values.
Stress and HRV result sheet with autonomic regulation.
History helps read the result as a trend, not as an isolated snapshot.
The vascular sheet works with pulse-wave shape. The trend is often more useful than one isolated result.
The stress sheet summarizes HRV metrics and autonomic regulation. It helps separate acute load, fatigue and weaker recovery from normal day-to-day variation.
History matters because one reading can be influenced by sleep, caffeine, training, illness, alcohol or emotional stress.
Create your account in advance and keep results together. The first and next Prague visits will then have clear context and repeat testing will say more than one snapshot.
Result
Max Pulse is a screening and trend tool. It can show a signal worth attention, but it does not replace internal medicine, cardiology or neurology care.
HRV and pulse-wave readings are sensitive to current state. A weaker reading after poor sleep, infection, hard training or a stressful day may not be a long-term problem.
Repeat testing under similar conditions is more useful than a single score. It helps separate random variation from a meaningful change.
Read the result alongside blood pressure, blood tests, age, smoking, activity, sleep and family history.
Chest pain, shortness of breath, repeated palpitations, fainting or known arrhythmia should be handled by a physician.
InBody diagnostics
Each device answers a different layer of the picture. The most useful view comes from reading them as complementary measurements, not substitutes.
Body composition, muscle, fat, water, segmental detail and trend tracking over time.
Pulse wave, HRV, stress regulation and autonomic nervous system balance.
Preparation
The more stable the conditions, the more useful repeat comparisons become.

FAQ
Not in the MojeInBody service context. We treat it as an orientation and trend measurement, not as diagnosis or treatment.
Yes, if you want more than body-composition numbers and care about recovery, stress regulation or vascular context. Its biggest value still comes from repeat testing under similar conditions.
No. A probe is placed on the finger and optically records the pulse wave. Staying still matters most.
AE is the elasticity of arterial (larger) vessels and PE the elasticity of peripheral (smaller) vessels. For both, a higher value reflects better elasticity. It is orientation context, not a diagnosis.
Movement, talking, caffeine, smoking, alcohol, hard training, illness, poor sleep, stress, forced breathing or poor finger sensing.
Yes. One reading is a snapshot; repeat testing under similar conditions is much better for trend tracking.
In most cases it is better to start with InBody and add Max Pulse as the next layer. InBody gives the baseline body map; Max Pulse adds HRV, stress and vascular context.
They are not replacements. InBody 970 measures body composition, InGrip measures grip strength and Max Pulse measures HRV, stress regulation and vascular signal.
If you have known arrhythmia, heart disease, repeated symptoms or a very unusual result. Screening should not replace healthcare.
No booking needed
Start before your first visit and decide during the measurement whether you want to add Max Pulse as well. The result is most useful when you track it over time together with body composition, sleep, training and recovery.
