Effects of gender and age on heart rate variability in healthy individuals and in persons after sudden cardiac arrest.

Abstract:

:The purpose of this study was to describe the effects of gender and age on heart rate variability (HRV) in healthy volunteers (n = 111; 40 men and 71 women) and in persons after sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) (n = 95; 79 men and 16 women). Frequency-domain measurements and six time-domain measurements of HRV (SDANN, 24-hour SD, SD, RMSSD, RR50, and %RR50) were taken. Two-factor analysis of variance was performed. In general, HRV was significantly lower in healthy women compared with healthy men in all the time-domain and frequency-domain variables except for the high-frequency components, RMSSD, RR50, and %RR50. There were no significant gender differences in the SCA sample. All the time-domain and frequency-domain measurements decreased with age in the healthy sample, but only the frequency-domain measurements decreased with age in the SCA sample.

  • Sudden QRS morphology change during ventricular pacing in a scar-related isthmus What is the mechanism?

    abstract::We present an example of sudden modification in QRS morphology during ventricular pacing inside a scar-related isthmus. This is explained by a "concealed" sudden block in both the orthodromic and antidromic wavefront directions, allowing then the activation to proceed through a now overt antidromic conduction. ...
