Abstract

Background Over the last decades, time domain heart rate (HR) variability analysis has been explored in different pediatric clinical settings to obtain information on the cardiac autonomic tone. However, the consistency over time of 24 h time domain HRV measurements in children is not well-known. Methods We investigated the reproducibility of 24 h HRV time-domain indices (1 day apart), from 39 healthy children (9.5 ± 5.3 years, 56.4% girls). The parameters analysed included: standard deviation of all the adjacent NN intervals, standard deviation of the averages of NN intervals (the intervals between normal R-peaks) in all 5-min segments, and square root of the mean of the sum of the squares of the differences between adjacent NN intervals, uncorrected and corrected for HR. Reproducibility between two 24-h ECG recordings was evaluated by intraclass correlation coefficients, standard error of measurement, coefficients of variation and Bland-Altman plots. Results For the analyzed time-domain indices, standard deviation of all the adjacent NN intervals corrected for HR showed best reproducibility with the highest intraclass correlation coefficient (0.987), the lowest coefficients of variation (5.5%) and the best level of agreement between two recordings as assessed by Bland-Altman plots. Conclusions Our results indicate that the standard deviation of all the adjacent NN intervals corrected for the HR parameter obtained from 24-h ambulatory recordings in children is consistent and…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
