Overview

0.1 Hz HRV may mark fatigue in inexperienced drivers; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before clinical use.

Structured PICO

Does distance driven affect heart rate variability as an indicator of driver fatigue in inexperienced drivers?

P
Population
8 inexperienced drivers
I
Intervention
Driving a 340 km highway circuit
O
Outcome
Spectral values of heart rate variability in the 0.05-0.15Hz region (0.1 Hz HRV)surrogate

Spectral analysis of heart rate variability in the 0.1 Hz region appears to be a sensitive indicator of driver fatigue.
