How do you calculate LF HF ratio?
These numbers were generated using the following formula (derived from a synthesis of the literature, particularly Randall et al., 1991; Taylor et al., 2001; Cohen and Taylor, 2002): LF/HF = (0.5 parasympathetic + 0.25 sympathetic nerve activity)/(0.9 parasympathetic + 0.1 sympathetic nerve activity).
What is LF Hf ratio of heart?
The LF band (0.04–0.15 Hz) is comprised of rhythms with periods between 7 and 25 s and is affected by breathing from ~3 to 9 bpm. Within a 5 min sample, there are 12–45 complete periods of oscillation (9). The HF or respiratory band (0.15–0.40 Hz) is influenced by breathing from 9 to 24 bpm (11).
What is the relationship between RR interval and heart rate?
The “heart rate” can be described as a true rate in beats per minute (HR) or as the RR interval in milliseconds. The RR interval and HR are hyperbolically related (HR x RR interval = 60000; see figure 1). Changes in these parameters are mediated in large part by the autonomic nervous system.
What is LF power in HRV?
Low-Frequency power (LF): frequency activity in the 0.04 - 0.15Hz range (yellow in the above chart) LF/HF Ratio: A ratio of Low Frequency to High Frequency. Some consider this indicative of Sympathetic to Parasympathetic Autonomic Balance, but that is controversial.
