Short-term heart rate variability and cardiac norepinephrine spillover in patients with depression and panic disorder.
Changes in measures of heart rate variability (HRV) have been associated with an increased risk for sudden cardiac death. The mechanisms underlying this association are not known. The objective of this study was to assess the relationship between the amount of norepinephrine (NE) released from the cardiac sympathetic terminals and short-term HRV. The study comprised 8 healthy subjects, 12 patie...
متن کاملQT interval variability and cardiac norepinephrine spillover in patients with depression and panic disorder.
Suggestions were made that increased myocardial sympathetic activity is reflected by elevated QT variability (dynamic changes in QT interval duration). However, the relationship between QT variability and the amount of norepinephrine released from the cardiac sympathetic terminals is unknown. We thus attempted to assess this relationship. The study was performed in 17 subjects (12 with major de...
متن کاملSympathetic Nervous Activation and Failure
Background Although heart rate variability (HRV) at 0.1 Hz has been proposed as a noninvasive clinical measure of cardiac sympathetic nerve firing, this premise has not been sufficiently validated by comparison with techniques such as microneurography and the measurement of norepinephrine spillover from the heart that more directly reflect presynaptic sympathetic activity. Methods and Results W...
متن کاملRelation between QT interval variability and cardiac sympathetic activity in hypertension.
Elevated QT interval variability is a predictor of malignant ventricular arrhythmia, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. A recent study in dogs with pacing-induced heart failure suggests that QT variability is linked to cardiac sympathetic nerve activity. The aim of this study was to determine whether increased cardiac sympathetic activity is associated with increased bea...
متن کاملAcute effects of continuous positive airway pressure on cardiac sympathetic tone in congestive heart failure.
BACKGROUND Depressed ventricular performance and neurohormonal activation are key pathophysiological features of congestive heart failure (CHF). Although angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and beta-adrenoceptor blockers exert beneficial effects in CHF, mortality remains unacceptably high, and the development of further therapeutic approaches is warranted. Recent data suggest that continuo...
