چکیده
DOI: 10.5935/abc.20170166 Abnormal parasympathetic activity on the heart has been implicated in several forms of symptomatic bradycardia, especially in young and otherwise healthy individuals. Neurally mediated syncope, sinus arrest and advanced atrioventricular (AV) block have high risk of injury and serious implications on quality of life. Nonetheless, until recently, their clinical management, mainly based on behavioral measures and pacing, have often proved to be ineffective or inadequate. An alternative approach to treat this specific population, avoiding device implants and continuous drug therapy seemed to be required.

Determination of sensitivity and specificity of QT interval in ECG of diabetic patients for ndiagnosis of cardiac autonomic neuropathy
one of the important complications of diabetes mellitus that physicians pay less attention to is diabetic autonomic neuropathy(DNA) ,especially cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN).this has a poor prognosis and is accompanied by sudden death risk,recently several investigations that were carried out for CAN detection ,suggested that QT-interval prolongation in these patients is an important diagn...
متن کاملHeart rate variability as important approach for assessment autonomic modulation
–Alterations in the heart rate recovery and heart rate variability have been associated with greater risk of mortality and early prognosis of cardiac diseases. Thus, strategies for assessing autonomic nervous system and its modulation to the heart are crucial for preventing cardiovascular events in healthy subjects as well as in cardiac patients. In this review, an update of studies examining h...
متن کاملEffects of Posteroanterior Thoracic Mobilization on Heart Rate Variability and Pain in Women with Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia (FM) has been associated with cardiac autonomic abnormalities and pain. Heart rate variability (HRV) is reduced in FM with autonomic tone dominated by sympathetic activity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of one session of a posteroanterior glide technique on both autonomic modulation and pain in woman with FM. This was a controlled trial with immediate follow...

Introduction Hemorrhagic shock is responsible for high mortality rates in civilian injuries and combat casualties. The initial care of these patients comprehends an early assessment of hypovolemia, bleeding management and fluid resuscitation [1], while an adequate autonomic function is essential for maintaining the hemodynamic stability during haemorrhage. The analysis of heart rate variability...
متن کاملSpace Vector Modulation Technique to Reduce Leakage Current of a Transformerless Three-Phase Four-Leg Photovoltaic System
Photovoltaic systems integrated to the grid have received considerable attention around the world. They can be connected to the electrical grid via galvanic isolation (transformer) or without it (transformerless). Despite making galvanic isolation, low frequency transformer increases size, cost and losses. On the other hand, transformerless PV systems increase the leakage current (common-mode c...
