The influence of nonstationarity in the time series of cardiac intervals on the assessment of the functional state (FS) of operator personnel was analyzed with a three-factor model of heart rhythm variability (HRV). ECG recordings were made in supine position at rest and in the sedentary position before and after important operator testing. In all three cases, the FS assessments were not influenced by nonstationarity of the input data. The effect of nonstationarity was also negligible for some particular HRV indices. Reliable assessments could be obtained from relatively short samples (256 down to 32 RR intervals) with prior norming of the factor indices for the corresponding segment length. The influence of the time series duration on the HRV indices was examined in various FSs; stable indices and proper recording conditions were determined.  相似文献

In the paper, outcomes of the researches devoted to factor analysis of heart rate variability parameters and definition of the most informative parameters for diagnostics of functional states and an evaluation of level of stability to mental loads, are presented. The factor structure of parameters, which unclude integral level of heart rate variability (1), balance between activity of vagus and brain cortical-limbic systems (2), integrated level of cardiovascular system functioning (3), is substantiated. Factor analysis outcomes have been used for construction of functional state classification, for their differential diagnostics, and for development and check of algorithm for evaluation of the stability level in mental loads.  相似文献

Coronary artery occlusions related to myocardial ischemia drive cardiac control system reactions that may lead to heart failure. The purpose of this study was to assess the autonomic nervous system (ANS) response during prolonged percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Continuous ECG data were acquired from 50 patients before and during PTCA, with occlusions in the left anterior descending, left circumflex or right coronary artery. Heart rate variability (HRV) was analyzed for 3-min segments of the R-R interval signal obtained from ECG data. The ANS behavior was evaluated by HRV analysis using fractal-like indices. The fractal scalar exponent alpha(1) and power-law slope beta decreased considerably during PTCA. This indicates that significant reactions of autonomic control of the heart rate occurred during coronary artery occlusions, with a reduction in complexity of the ANS.  相似文献

This study evaluated the contributions of sympathetic and parasympathetic modulation to heart rate variability during situations in which vagal and sympathetic tone predominated. In a placebo-controlled, randomized, double blind blockade study, six young healthy male individuals received propranolol (0.2 mg x kg(-1)), atropine (0.04 mg x kg(-1)), propranolol plus atropine, or placebo infusions over 4 days. Time-domain indices were calculated during 40 min of rest and 20 min of exercise at 70% of maximal exercise intensity. Spectrum analysis, using fast Fourier transformation, was also performed at rest and during the exercise. The time-domain indices standard deviation of R-R intervals, mean of the standard deviations of all R-R intervals for all 5-min segments, percentage of number of pairs of adjacent R-R intervals differing by more than 50 ms, and square root of the mean of the sum of squares of differences between adjacent R-R intervals were reduced after atropine and propranolol plus atropine. Propranolol alone caused no appreciable change in any of the time-domain indices. At rest, all spectrum components were similar after placebo and propranolol infusions, but following parasympathetic and double autonomic blockade there was a reduction in all components of the spectrum analysis, except for the low:high ratio. During exercise, partial and double blockade did not change significantly any of the spectrum components. Thus, time and frequency-domain indices of heart rate variability were able to detect vagal activity, but could not detect sympathetic activity. During exercise, spectrum analysis is not capable of evaluating autonomic modulation of heart rate.  相似文献

This study examined the claim made by Niemela et al. (1992) that the decline in heart rate variability after coronary artery bypass graft surgery is irreversible. We tested six women and 16 men six and 12 weeks postoperative in three postures: in the supine position, in the standing position, and during low-intensity steady-state exercise. Beat-by-beat arterial blood pressure and electrocardiographic R-R interval data were collected continuously for 10 min in each condition. R-R interval data were analyzed with spectral analysis; baroreflex data were analyzed using the sequence method. Our results show that the indices of parasympathetic modulation improved over time, as seen by an increased spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity and parasympathetic indicator, that both indices were affected by posture, and that spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity was also affected by low-intensity exercise. The effects of posture are consistent with attenuated responses of healthy older subjects to orthostatic stress. Similarly, the effects of low-intensity exercise are consistent with findings in healthy subjects. We found that spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity declined during exercise, whereas, in healthy subjects, this is maintained during low-intensity steady-state exercise. Our results of significant functional recovery between six and 12 weeks postoperative suggest that at least some of the autonomic dysfunction following surgery is temporary. Previously, no such duration of study has lasted longer than four or six weeks following cardiac surgery, which may not have been long enough to show significant functional restoration in heart rate variability.  相似文献

On an example of records EEG of 39 healthy subjects, the quantitative analysis of variability of the autocorrelation structure of one-second EEG segments was carried out on the basis of comparison of structural functions constructed for these segments. It was shown that more than 30% of cases, statistically significant sifferences were observed between the structural functions of successive one-second EEG segments shifted by 1-3 s, as compared to surrogate EEGs formed with the tangled random sequence of count points. On the basis of the obtained data, the index of nonstationarity of the EEG autocorrelation structure was proposed. This index can be used for the objective quantitative evaluation of the functional states of the human brain.  相似文献

This study was designed to assess the relationship between R-R interval length and heart rate (HR) variability in healthy subjects and patients after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Twenty-four-hour ambulatory ECG recordings were obtained for 76 healthy subjects and 82 post-AMI patients. The high-frequency (HF, 0.15-0.4 Hz) spectral power of R-R intervals was analyzed in 5-min sequences over 24 h and plotted as a function of the corresponding mean R-R interval length. Quadratic regression model was used to study the relationship between R-R interval length and HF power. If a distinct deflection point (R-R0) occurred in the quadratic regression (r >0.50) model before maximum R-R interval, indicating the plateau of HF power, the relationship between R-R interval and HF power was defined as saturated. Otherwise, the relationship was defined as linear (r >0.50) or low correlated (r >0.50). The relationship was saturated in 35, linear in 38, and low correlated in 3 healthy subjects. In post-AMI patients, the relationship was saturated in 9 subjects, linear in 44 subjects, and low correlated in 29 patients. The HF power analyzed from the 24-h period did not differ between the saturated and linear groups, but when analyzed from the linear portion only, HF spectral power was smaller in the linear than the saturated group both among healthy subjects (P <0.05) and post-AMI patients (P <0.05). Saturation of the HF oscillations of R-R intervals is a common phenomenon in healthy subjects and also present in post-AMI patients during ambulatory conditions. This saturation effect may bias the quantification of cardiac vagal function when HR variability is analyzed from Holter recordings.  相似文献

A method of analysis of heart rate variability based on the graph theory principle was suggested. The main parameters of the heart rate graph structure were determined and analyzed using models of harmonic oscillations, white noise, and various functional tests (including controllable respiration and mental load). The efficiency of the use of parameters of the heart rate graph for diagnosing some functional states was considered. A correlation of the parameters of the heart rate graph structure with the frequency characteristics of heart rate variability was studied. A general model of changes in the heart rate graph structure parameters at different levels of mental activity was constructed in terms of entropy changes.  相似文献

In surgeons while opening the wound, during the operation proper, closing the skin and immediately after the operation, the ECG was recorded telemetrically for 5-min periods. From the ECG recordings, indices reflecting cardiac arrhythmia and emotional level were calculated. It is concluded that the process of decision making during the vital stages of operations causes a fall in the CHRV (the coefficient of heart rate variability), S2 (the variance of R-R intervals) and VR (the variability range of R-R intervals). It seems that of the indices studied, the most suitable for evaluation of the degree of mental loading due to decision making processes are the CHRV and S2. During all the stages of surgery studied, and immediately after the operation, an increase in tonus of the sympathetic nervous system occurs in surgeons indicating a rise in emotional level.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate whether heart rate variability (HRV) can be used as an index of parasympathetic reactivation after exercise. Heart rate recovery after exercise has recently been shown to have prognostic significance and has been postulated to be related to abnormal recovery of parasympathetic tone. Ten normal subjects [5 men and 5 women; age 33 +/- 5 yr (mean +/- SE)] exercised to their maximum capacity, and 12 subjects (10 men and 2 women; age 61 +/- 10 yr) with coronary artery disease exercised for 16 min on two separate occasions, once in the absence of atropine and once with atropine (0.04 mg/kg) administered during exercise. The root mean square residual (RMS), which measures the deviation of the R-R intervals from a straight line, as well as the standard deviation (SD) and the root mean square successive difference of the R-R intervals (MSSD), were measured on successive 15-, 30-, and 60-s segments of a 5-min ECG obtained immediately after exercise. In recovery, the R-R interval was shorter with atropine (P < 0.0001). Without atropine, HRV, as measured by the MSSD and RMS, increased early in recovery from 4.1 +/- 0.4 and 3.7 +/- 0.4 ms in the first 15 s to 7.2 +/- 1.0 and 7.4 +/- 0.9 ms after 1 min, respectively (P < 0.0001). RMS (range 1.7-2.1 ms) and MSSD were less with atropine (P < 0.0001). RMS remained flat throughout recovery, whereas MSSD showed some decline over time from 3.0 to 2.2 ms (P < 0.002). RMS and MSSD were both directly related (r(2) = 0.47 and 0.56, respectively; P < 0.0001) to parasympathetic effect, defined as the difference in R-R interval without and with atropine. In conclusion, RMS and MSSD are parameters of HRV that can be used in the postexercise recovery period as indexes of parasympathetic reactivation after exercise. These tools may improve our understanding of parasympathetic reactivation after exercise and the prognostic significance of heart rate recovery.  相似文献

StressEraser is a commercially marketed biofeedback device designed to enhance heart rate variability. StressEraser makes its internal calculations on beat-to-beat measures of finger pulse intervals. However, the accuracy and precision of StressEraser in quantifying interbeat intervals using finger pulse intervals has not been evaluated against standard laboratory equipment using R-R intervals. Accuracy was assessed by simultaneously recording interbeat intervals using StressEraser and a standard laboratory ECG system. The interbeat intervals were highly correlated between the systems. The average deviation in interbeat interval recordings between the systems was approximately 6 ms. Moreover, correlations approached unity between the systems on estimates of heart period, heart rate, and heart rate variability. Feedback from StressEraser is based on an interbeat time series that provides sufficient information to provide an excellent estimate of the dynamic changes in heart rate and heart rate variability. The slight variations between StressEraser and the laboratory equipment in quantifying heart rate and heart rate variability are due to features related to monitoring heart rate with finger pulse: (1) a lack in precision in the peak of the finger pulse relative to the clearly defined inflection point in the R-wave, and (2) contribution of variations in pulse transit time.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to establish differences in vagal reactivation, through heart rate recovery and heart rate variability post exercise, in Brazilian jiu-jitsu wrestlers (BJJW). A total of 18 male athletes were evaluated, ten highly trained (HT) and eight moderately trained (MT), who performed a maximum incremental test. At the end of the exercise, the R-R intervals were recorded during the first minute of recovery. We calculated heart rate recovery (HRR60s), and performed linear and non-linear (standard deviation of instantaneous beat-to-beat R-R interval variability – SD1) analysis of heart rate variability (HRV), using the tachogram of the first minute of recovery divided into four segments of 15 s each (0-15 s, 15-30 s, 30-45 s, 45-60 s). Between HT and MT individuals, there were statistically significant differences in HRR60s (p <0.05) and in the non linear analysis of HRV from SD130-45s (p <0.05) and SD145-60s (p <0.05). The results of this research suggest that heart rate kinetics during the first minute after exercise are related to training level and can be used as an index for autonomic cardiovascular control in BJJW.  相似文献

Vasodepressor reactions were induced in 27 rats by a combination of inferior vena caval occlusion and an infusion of isoproterenol. A vasodepressor reaction was defined as paradoxical heart rate slowing during inferior vena caval occlusion. The R-R intervals were measured at 5-s intervals before, during, and after 60 s of inferior vena caval occlusion. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of the right and left vagus nerve and the right and left stellate ganglia in this reflex. Under control conditions inferior vena caval occlusion accelerated the rate (R-R, -15.9 +/- 0.9 ms). During an infusion of isoproterenol (0.5-1.0 micrograms.min-1), inferior vena caval occlusion produced paradoxical rate slowing, i.e., a vasodepressor reaction (R-R, +75.0 +/- 2.2 ms). The vasodepressor reaction was examined during inferior vena caval occlusion and isoproterenol under the following additional states: atropine methyl bromide or right vagotomy did not alter the reaction; left vagotomy eliminated the reaction; and right or left stellectomy greatly reduced the vasodepressor reaction. We conclude the following: (1) left vagal afferents mediate the vasodepressor reaction; (2) cardiac sympathetic fibers participate in the vasodepressor reaction by withdrawing efferent tone through the right stellate ganglion, and by generating the afferent signal, which triggers the vasodepressor reaction through the left stellate ganglion.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to compare the duration and variability of speech segments of children who stutter with those of children who do not stutter and to identify changes in duration and variability of speech segments due to the effect of utterance length. Eighteen children participated (ranging from 6.3 to 7.9 years of age). The experimental task required the children to repeat a single word in isolation and the same word embedded in a sentence. Durations of speech segments and Coefficients of variation (Cv) were defined to assess temporal parameters of speech. Significant differences were found in the variability of speech segments on the sentence level, but not in duration. The findings supported the assumption that linguistic factors pose direct demands on the speech motor system and that the extra duration of speech segments observed in the speech of stuttering adults may be a kind of compensation strategy.  相似文献

This study dealt with the long-term effects of hypertension on circadian rhythms of hemodynamic and cardiovascular autonomic functions in radiotelemetered rats. Blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), spontaneous locomotor activity, and respiration.were monitored in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), a model of human hypertension, from 14 to 27 weeks of age and in Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) as controls. Cardiovascular autonomic changes were determined by time-domain analysis of the variability of BP (standard deviation of mean arterial pressure, SDMAP) and HR (standard deviation of R-R intervals, SDRR, and the root mean square of successive differences in R-R intervals, rMSSD). Compared with WKY rats, the 24-hr MAP and SDMAP were higher at week 14 in SHRs and showed stepwise increases over the study duration, suggesting progressive increases in vasomotor sympathetic activity in hypertensive rats. Also, higher SDRR, rMSSD, and activity and lower HR and respiration were demonstrated in SHRs. Normal circadian rhythms (higher dark-time values) of MAP, HR, SDMAP, and SDRR were evident in WKY rats at week 20 and continued thereafter. Compared with WKY rats, the circadian BP and HR patterns were abolished and inverted, respectively, in SHRs. Lower dark-time, compared with light-time, SDMAP values were observed in SHRs that were associated with temporal increases in HR variability indices. These findings demonstrate that hypertension elicits significant alterations in circadian autonomic and hemodynamic profiles. Further, the steady increases in BP, average level and oscillations, in SHRs may explain the reported progressive age-related vascular and cardiac hypertrophy in these rats.  相似文献

With the aim to assess the influence of pre-examination psychoemotional stress on the level of centralization of the heart rate control, mathematical analysis of ECG of students was performed in normal condition (a common day of academic semester), before, and after an examination. The ECG was recorded and processed with the help of IBM-486 PC. R-R cardiointevalograms were processed by the method of variational pulsometry after Baevsky. Common quantitative heart rate indices were studied. The level of anxiety of students was assessed by Spilberger, and subjective estimations of general condition, activity and mood were obtained from the respective questionnaire. Three types of heart rate reactions on the examination stress were revealed. The reactions depended on the individual typological characteristics and the state of autonomic nervous system.  相似文献

Using the functional tests method, it was shown that the ontogenetic course of development of the cardiovascular system vegetative regulation after the age 6 years might be conditionally divided into some periods. About the age of 13-14 years, the spectral structure of heart rate variability reached the level of adult humans but is accompanied with features of functional strengthening in regulative systems. About the age of 15-16 years, maturation of indices received in quiet state (heart rate, stroke volume, spectral and statistical parameters of heart rate variability) is reached. At the same time, the functional maturation of heart rate regulating systems was complete thereby providing adaptive response of the organism during the implementation of functional tests. Functional maturation of peripheral blood pressure and the systems of its regulation completed after 16 years.  相似文献

Introduction

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The goal of this study was to demonstrate whether the use of CPAP produces significant changes in the heart rate or in the heart rate variability of patients with OSA in the first night of treatment and whether gender and obesity play a role in these differences.

Methods

Single-center transversal study including patients with severe OSA corrected with CPAP. Only patients with total correction after CPAP were included. Patients underwent two sleep studies on consecutive nights: the first night a basal study, and the second with CPAP. We also analyzed the heart rate changes and their relationship with CPAP treatment, sleep stages, sex and body mass index. Twenty-minute segments of the ECG were selected from the sleep periods of REM, no-REM and awake. Heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) were studied by comparing the R-R interval in the different conditions. We also compared samples from the basal study and CPAP nights.

Results

39 patients (15 females, 24 males) were studied. The mean age was 50.67 years old, the mean AHI was 48.54, and mean body mass index was 33.41 kg/m2 (31.83 males, 35.95 females). Our results showed that HRV (SDNN) decreased after the use of CPAP during the first night of treatment, especially in non-REM sleep. Gender and obesity did not have any influence on our results.

Conclusions

These findings support that cardiac variability improves as an acute effect, independently of gender or weight, in the first night of CPAP use in severe OSA patients, supporting the idea of continuous use and emphasizing that noncompliance of CPAP treatment should be avoided even if it is just once.  相似文献

To evaluate the effects of weight reduction on the autonomic nervous system in obese patients, we investigated heart rate variability (HRV) based on 24-hr ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) recordings before and after weight reduction. To aim for weight reduction, 16 obese patients were treated with the very-low-calorie conventional Japanese diet (VLCD-CJ) therapy combined with behavior therapy. Percent weight reduction was 17.8% +/- 1.5% (means +/- SEM), but mean blood pressure did not change significantly after VLCD-CJ therapy. The mean normal R-R interval (mNN) of the 24-hr ECG and all other five time-domain indices increased after weight reduction. Spectral analysis revealed that weight reduction increased the high frequency (HF) component, but decreased the ratio of low to high (LF/HF) components. Rate of change in mNN or HF correlated positively with reduction rate of body mass index, but not that in LF/HF. Analysis of daily fluctuations in each HRV parameter showed that significant improvement after weight loss occurred mainly during the nocturnal period, but an HF component was improved throughout the day and night periods. These findings indicate that functional impairment of the autonomic nervous system in obese subjects, particularly in the nocturnal period, is improved by effective weight reduction after VLCD-CJ therapy.  相似文献
