Description
Summary:[...]as shown in Table 3 of our study,2 HF HRV normalized to total (very low frequency + low frequency [LF] + LF + HF) power was significantly and directly related to hazards for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality; normalized LF power and the LF/HF ratio were also significantly inversely related to adverse prognosis. [...]we performed similar exploratory analysis in which the short-term HRV parameter, the root mean square successive difference (rMSSD) in the R-R interval, was normalized to the R-R interval.
