The invention discloses a
heart rate variability evaluation method based on temperature change, and relates to the technical field of physiological
signal processing and health monitoring. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, synchronously acquiring electrocardiosignals and environment temperature data of a measured object under different temperature conditions; then
processing the electrocardiosignal to extract an
RR interval sequence, and calculating a group of
heart rate variability characteristic indexes; secondly, performing function fitting by taking the environment temperature as an independent variable and the
heart rate variability characteristic index as a dependent variable, and constructing a personalized
response model reflecting the change of the individual HRV along with the temperature; and finally, based on the model, determining an HRV theoretical reference value at a standard temperature or extracting a
temperature sensitivity quantitative characteristic, and comparing the HRV theoretical reference value with a
healthy population reference range, thereby realizing accurate evaluation of the
autonomic nerve function state or the temperature adaptability. According to the method, by quantifying the influence of the temperature on the heart rate variability, the defect that in the prior art, evaluation is inaccurate in a variable-temperature environment is effectively overcome, and the reliability and applicability of an
evaluation result are remarkably improved.
