Comparison of assessment methods of cardiac vagal modulation.
BACKGROUND Several methods have been used to assess cardiac vagal modulation, but there are gaps regarding the association and accuracy of these methods. OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between three valid, reproducible and commonly methods used to assess cardiac vagal modulation and compare their accuracies. METHODS Thirty healthy men (23 ± 4 years) and 15 men with coronary artery...
متن کاملAssessment of cardiac autonomic modulation during graded head-up tilt by symbolic analysis of heart rate variability.
Two symbolic indexes, the percentage of sequences characterized by three heart periods with no significant variations (0V%) and that with two significant unlike variations (2UV%), have been found to reflect changes in sympathetic and vagal modulations, respectively. We tested the hypothesis that symbolic indexes may track the gradual shift of the cardiac autonomic modulation during an increment...
متن کاملتأثیر هیوسین- ان- بوتیل بروماید بر آریتمی سینوسی- تنفسی در افراد جوان سالم
Background and purpose: Fluctuations in the heart rate can be affected by many factors such as breathing. The amplitude of heart rate variability during inhalation and exhalation provides a quantitative measure that puts the estimate of cardiac vagal function which is considered. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a single dose of hyoscine-N-butylbromide (hyoscine) on the am...
متن کاملSympathetic and periodic vagal influences on antegrade and retrograde conduction through the canine atrioventricular node.
Concurrent stimulation of the parasympathetic and sympathetic branches of the autonomic nervous system causes a diminished sympathetic response at high levels of vagal activity. This "accentuated antagonism" has been demonstrated for cardiac chronotropic, inotropic, and dromotropic responses. The effect on conduction was demonstrated with tonic stimulation of the vagus nerve. However, normally ...
متن کاملComparison of Sequential Changes in Heart Rate Variability After On - Pump and Off - Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Background: Cardiac vagal modulation is reduced in patients with coronary artery disease or previous myocardial infarction. The propensity to lethal arrhythmias and oxygen consumption is thus increased. The objective of the present study was to assess the effect of different techniques used in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), namely on-pump versus off-pump, on the level of vagal modulati...
