Risk stratification in advanced heart failure using lorenz plot indices of heart rate variability

Abstract: The availability of powerful but expensive therapeutic means necessitates optimization of risk stratification of patients with advanced heart failure for both medical and economic reasons. Traditional methods of heart rate variability have been suffering from low predictive accuracy regarding identification of patients who are at high risk of cardiac death. We showed that Lorenz plot based heart rate variability indices are useful in significantly improving risk stratification in patients suffering from advanc… Show more

“…The wide fan distribution of the RR intervals during the period of bradycardia reflects the influence of parasympathetic tone. 7-11 In frame B of Fig.6 the short RR intervals are absent, with only longer RR intervals distributed above approximately 1200 msec. Parasympathetic influence is again evidenced by the fan shape; 7-11 however, a subpopulation of RR intervals more densely concentrated is seen as an elliptical or ‘torpedo or bullet’ shape 7 above 1500 msec (upper right corner).…”

“…Conventional indexes based on LP including long axis, short axis and their ratio have a poor anti-jamming ability of occasional arrhythmia [10,17] . The nearly circular LP distribution of arrhythmia ECG has introduced the analysis of the correlation between the radius size of the circle and the HRV, which has been proved with academic logic [18][19][20] .…”

“…Using dedicated software [4], we assessed the symmetry properties of each Poincaré plot at time lags = 1 cycle and = 1000 cycles, respectively. For that purpose, the Poincaré plot data were represented in the coordinate system (x,y) which was rotated 45° counter clockwise ( Fig.1 ) and given by:…”
