Abstract:
It has been shown that linear and non-linear heart rate variability (HRV) metrics are suitable to assess workload of anesthetists administering anesthesia. In pre-hospital emergency care, these parameters have not yet been evaluated. We hypothesized that heart rate (HR) and HRV metrics discriminate between differing workload levels of an emergency physician.Electrocardiograms were obtained from 13 emergency physicians. Mean HR, ten linear and seven non-linear HRV metrics were analyzed. For each...     »
