Heart Rate Variability Measurements During Exercise Test May Improve the Diagnosis of Ischemic Heart Disease

Abstract

In this work we have analyzed changes in the heart rate variability (HRV) during exercise test comparing them with the ST deviation criteria to improve the diagnostic value of the exercise test. Coronary angiography was considered as gold standard to establish the classification of patients in two groups (ischemic and non-ischemic). ST deviations and HRV indexes were automatically measured and used as independent factors in discriminant analysis to find those more useful to classify both groups.
