Cybersport is a branch of hybrid sports activity combining information and communication technologies and classical sports' training and competition principles. The optimal functional state of a gamer is one of the important keys to his professional success, and the proper activity of the individual physiological systems of his body contributes to the realization of his abilities. Because eSports is a relatively new field of sports practice, protocols are needed for a comprehensive study of the functional state of gamers. The goal is to develop and approve a protocol for a comprehensive study of the level of sports performance of cyber-athletes, which includes the assessment of anthropometric indicators and the functional state of the neuromuscular system and conducting a series of tests to determine the state of psychophysiological functions and the level of intelligence in combination with a simultaneous study of the physiological price of standard dosed loads on intelligence and the sensorimotor sphere according to indicators of heart rate variability and central and regional hemodynamics. Fourteen e-sportsmen aged 17-23 took part in the study. An assessment of cerebral, central and peripheral hemodynamics parameters, analysis of heart rate variability, psychophysiological parameters and features of sensorimotor reactions were performed in all examined persons. Also, the examination protocol included the evaluation of the general level of intelligence, electroneuromyographic and stabilometric research, measurement of the strength of large groups of muscles of the trunk and limbs, and analysis of the body's composition. We have proposed a new systematic approach to diagnosing the functional state of cyber-athletes, which consists of instrumental research of physiological and anthropometric indicators that have the most significant impact on the effectiveness of gamers' sports activities. A research protocol consisting of 3 blocks has been developed and tested: block I – psychophysiological examination of e-athletes with a simultaneous study of heart rate variability and the state of central and peripheral hemodynamics in the upper limbs; block II – study of the general level of intelligence of the examinees in combination with the study of the reaction of cerebral and central hemodynamics to intellectual load; block III – electroneuromyographic and stabilometric study, measurement of the strength of large groups of muscles of the trunk and limbs, determination of body composition.
