Key Points

  • The study aims to evaluate how heart rate variability (HRV) serves as a prognostic marker in patients who have had a myocardial infarction and were treated with fibrinolysis.
  • Analyzed time-domain indexes of HRV in post-myocardial infarction patients.

Structured PICO

Do time-domain indexes of heart rate variability retain independent prognostic significance in post-myocardial infarction patients treated with fibrinolysis?

P
Population
post-myocardial infarction patients of all ages treated with fibrinolysis
I
Intervention
Time-domain indexes of heart rate variability (HRV)
O
Outcome
prognostic significance

Time-domain indexes of heart rate variability remain independent prognostic markers in post-myocardial infarction patients treated with fibrinolysis.

Abstract

Time-domain indexes of HRV retain their independent prognostic significance even in post-MI patients of all ages treated with fibrinolysis.
