Abstract:Heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) is an efficacious treatment for depression and anxiety. However, translation to digital mental health interventions (DMHI) requires computing and providing real‐time HRVB metrics in a personalized and user‐friendly fashion. To address these gaps, this study validates a real‐time HRVB feedback algorithm and characterizes the association of the main algorithmic summary metric—HRVB amplitude—with demographic, psychological, and health factors. We analyzed HRVB data from 5… Show more
