The methodology of evaluating the health status of the normal man is discussed. Special attention is given to the boundary states between the norm and pathology, i.e. ++pre-nosological and premorbid states. The development of automatic systems for evaluating the functional state of the human body is described. A motor-borne automatic system "Autosan-82" is described as a ground-based analog of a space system of medical monitoring. Also, a description of present-day automatic systems "Control", "Vita", and "Rhythm" is given. They can provide health evaluation at three levels: 1) preliminary assessment and identification of subjects in different health conditions; 2) diagnosis of functional states, identification of risk factors, and potential profiles of pathology; 3) medical examinations by specialists in different medical disciplines of subjects with potential pathologies or detailed evaluation of reserve capabilities of health subjects.
