Heart Rate Variability (HRV) Analysis in Children

This video is available only with Russian audio. For better understanding, please enable the English subtitles.

The study of heart rate variability (HRV) in children makes it possible to:

• assess functional disorders of autonomic regulation and determine the causes of syncopal (fainting) conditions;
• evaluate functional status at different stages of the training process, with early detection of overtraining signs in young athletes;
• perform cross-analysis of HRV and respiratory cycle duration variability (RCDV), allowing assessment of the synchronization level between these systems.

Neurosoft electrocardiographs enable comprehensive assessment of the autonomic nervous system using methods such as:

• HRV analysis at rest in accordance with the International Standard (1996);
• HRV analysis during an orthostatic test (evaluation of autonomic support of the orthostatic response);
• diagnosis of diabetic and alcoholic neuropathy using a set of cardiovascular tests recommended by the San Antonio Conference (1998);
• cross-analysis of HRV and respiratory cycle duration variability (RCDV), which allows evaluation of the synchronization level between these systems (additionally, a wide variation in respiratory cycle duration at rest may serve as an early marker of psychovegetative disorders).

A specialized solution for HRV analysis by Neurosoft is the VNS-Micro system. Any Neurosoft electrocardiograph can be supplemented with a module for diagnosing the state of the autonomic nervous system. Learn more about the Poly-Spectrum-8/E electrocardiograph on the website.
