Details of a real world implementation of Fourier techniques for power spectral analysis of heart rate variability.
A software package designed to perform a power spectral analysis of heart rate variability for Holter data is presented. The implementation is for the SpaceLabs Medical FT series 386/486-based Holter analysis workstation (Redmond, WA). The package is designed to allow rapid assessment of both short-term and long-term fluctuations in the heart rate spectrum. The package can be used to make a variety of spectral measurements of heart rate variability.
