[0028] a. overview

[0029] figure 1 is a flowchart of a method 100 of quantifying cardiovascular mortality risk using an exercise-induced heart rate variability metric. The method 100 includes a stage 102 comprising increasing the patient's heart rate. This can be done through both exercise and pharmacological regimens. Method 100 continues to stage 104 comprising digitizing and recording an electrocardiogram ...

Abstract

Methods and apparatus for assessing cardiac risks in a specific patient. One embodiment of a method in accordance with the invention comprises providing heart rate activity of a specific patient including a windowed time series relating to heart rate variability during a heart rate test. This method further includes determining a frequency domain value based on energy values of frequency bands of the heart rate variability in the windowed time series, and/or determining an aggregate power for a frequency band of the windowed time series. This method further includes assessing the risk of a cardiac event based on the frequency value and/or the aggregate power.

Description

[0001] Related Application Cross-References [0002] This application claims priority to US Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 60 / 779,313, filed March 3, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to methods and devices for assessing the risk of death from cardiovascular causes using spectral and temporal signatures of heart rate variability from heart rate measurements performed during a cardiac stress test. Background technique [0004] Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the cause of approximately 300,000-400,000 deaths per year in the United States. Although the individual risk of SCD in the US adult population is only about 0.1-0.2% / year when applied to a large population base, SCD is often the first and only manifestation of the presence of cardiovascular disease in most cardiovascular-related deaths. Deaths related to recovery from a massive myocardial infarction actually account for only a minority of to...
