Fractal analysis of heart rate dynamics as a predictor of mortality in patients with depressed left ventricular function after acute myocardial infarction. TRACE Investigators. TRAndolapril Cardiac Evaluation

Key Points

• Mortality prediction in patients with depressed left ventricular function is associated with heart rate dynamics.
• Fractal analysis showed significant correlations with mortality outcomes after acute myocardial infarction.
• Assessment using heart rate dynamics provides insights into patient prognosis post-myocardial infarction.
• This work highlights the need for further exploration of heart rate dynamics in clinical settings.
