A comparison of photoplethysmography and ECG recording to analyse heart rate variability in healthy subjects

Abstract: Measures of heart rate variability (HRV) are widely used to assess autonomic nervous system (ANS) function. The signal from which they are derived requires accurate determination of the interval between successive heartbeats; it can be recorded via electrocardiography (ECG), which is both non-invasive and widely available. However, methodological problems inherent in the recording and analysis of ECG traces have motivated a search for alternatives. Photoplethysmography (PPG) constitutes another means of determ… Show more

“…We also had a set of a priori ROIs and controlled for menstrual status (which significantly affects RRV [26]), thus increasing the power of our tests. Further, although using pulse oximetry to measure HF-RRV is not as sensitive or direct as acquisition via electrocardiogram, recent data support its use as a valid means of measuring HRV compared to ECG [24]. Also, our results are remarkably consistent with previous studies reporting activation in our ROIs, several of which are in the central autonomic network [23].…”

“…A segment of 5 min was selected for analysis of HR and HRV, discarding 30 s each at the beginning and end of the recoding. Pulse-to-pulse intervals are a sufficient proxy for cardiac inter-beat-intervals (IBIs) and suitable for analysis of HR and HRV (Selvaraj et al , 2008; Lu et al , 2009; Gil et al , 2010). Readout of pulse oximetry data was automated in MATLAB to determine IBIs based on the built-in Siemens peak detection algorithm, as described in Gaebler et al (2013).…”

“…Approximately seven minutes of data were collected in total, however, the first two minutes of data were removed to account for habituation to the imaging procedure. Pulse oximetry data offers an especially accurate approximation of interbeat intervals4950. Consistent with recommendations10, the raw pulse data was upsampled to 1000 Hz using spline interpolation to refine the pulse peak point to calculate HRV in ARTiiFACT51.…”
