Power Spectral Analysis of Heart Rate Varability in Sudden Cardiac Death: Comparison to Other Methods

TL;DR: Heart rate variability was found to be reduced in cardiac patients known to be at increased risk of SCD, when compared to those not at increased Risk, suggesting that this method may be useful in categorizing cardiac patients according to risk of sudden cardiac death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diurnal pattern of QTc interval: How long is prolonged?: Possible relation to circadian triggers of cardiovascular events

TL;DR: The maximal QTc interval over 24 h in normal subjects is longer than heretofore thought and has implications regarding the definition of QT prolongation and its use in predicting arrhythmias and sudden death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heart rate variability and sudden death secondary to coronary artery disease during ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring

TL;DR: Findings support suggestions that HR variability analysis may be useful in identifying patients at a higher risk of sudden death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reproducibility and relation to mean heart rate of heart rate variability in normal subjects and in patients with congestive heart failure secondary to coronary artery disease.

TL;DR: Before heart rate (HR) variability can be used for predictive purposes in the clinical setting, day-to-day variation and reproducibility need to be defined as do relations to mean HR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low heart rate variability and sudden cardiac death.

TL;DR: HRV measurements have potential for serving as an independent predictor of inducibility in response to programmed ventricular stimulation and that they could represent a noninvasive screen for patients referred for evaluation of risk of SCD because of asymptomatic ventricular ectopy or other causes.
