Cardio-Respiratory Characterization of the Autonomic Balance

Jean-Marc Vesin, Leila Mirmohamadsadeghi, Grégoire Millet

The autonomic balance is often measured using the low frequency~(LF) and high frequency~(HF) powers of the heart beat-to-beat intervals. However, these indices do not adequately integrate the influence of respiration and have been widely criticized. We stu ...
