Abstract:Presence of heart rate variability (HRV)
IntroductionPresence of heart rate variability (HRV) in isolated hearts is widely recognized; however, its mechanisms are still subject of debate. One of the possible explanations is that mechanoreceptors in cardiac tissue affect HRV. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that mechanical stimulus can induce changes of heart rhythm [1, 2]. In order to evaluate effect of mechanical stimulation of isolated heart during atrium and ventricle filling, HRV parameters wer… Show more
