Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, several studies revealed that daily slow-breathing exercise lowered blood pressure and increased baroreflex sensitivity. With this interesting finding, we have been contemplating to design a compact breath-controllable device for relaxation to stress reaction during daily living for home as well as ambulatory use, as a final goal, towards reduction of hemodynamic disorders, hypertension, and acute stress-induced hemodynamic disorders. The present study describes, as a first step, to design a prototype system combining a compact non-invasive beat-by-beat cardiovascular monitor developed previously with a wrist-type vibrator to make a respiration rhythm, and to assess an effect of slow-breathing on the cardiovascular hemodynamic in response to acute stressful conditions. The stressful tasks loaded to healthy volunteers (n=3) in the experiments were cold pressor and arithmetic ones as a representative of daily passive and active coping tasks, respectively, under conditions with (respiratory rate of 6 1/min) and without breath control. The results showed that the slow-breathing technique could have a significant effect on improvement of the hemodynamic changes following the acute stressful tasks, especially in the passive coping task.
