The study by Jouven et al supports the view that resting heart rate is an important predictor of cardiovascular mortality, in particular of sudden death in men. This finding is in keeping with previous results from the Framingham Study in adult subjects and from the CASTEL study in elderly ...
Professor Iso and his team then assessed the performance of each young man's heart and lungs at rest and during exercise, to check for cardiovascular abnormalities among athletes with and without SDB. These tests showed that restingheart-ratewas higher among SDB athletes, and that SDB athletes e...
We found a non-linear association between resting heart rate and SCD; the value of ≥ 90 beats per/min was accompanied by 72% increased risk. In the meta-analysis including five prospective studies, the researchers found a linear association between heart rate with SCD, and every 10 numb...

Thus, because of the changing autonomic control or modulation of the heart rate throughout the day, the high- and low-frequency power components are not stationary, and their link to specific physiology is therefore less well defined. Analysis of these bands from short-term recordings during ...

The factors favoring ICD implantation were multiple MIs, increased resting heart rate, occurrence of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia, QRS duration = 120 ms, syncope events, anti-arrhythmic drug treatment (mostly Class III), and an index MI of more than one year. The likelihood of receiving...
According to an article in a medical journal, among those infants who face a high risk of crib death are those who have: a family history of SIDS (especially brothers or sisters); seizure disorders associated with apnea (lack of breathing); Hyaline membrane disease, or prematurity. ...
The arrhythmia is observed in the context of a particular profile of the autonomic nervous system with low heart rate variability and high sympathetic to parasympathetic ratio. Treatment Class I antiarrhythmic drugs, beta-blockers, and amiodarone appeared ineffective. Verapamil seemed to diminish the ...
