Key result
Higher resting heart rate was associated with larger components of the auditory evoked-related potential, with strong positive correlations for P2 and N2 and moderate negative for N1 and P3a.
Why the study?
Is resting heart rate associated with auditory evoked-related potentials in healthy young women?
Cross-Sectional (n=21)
Is resting heart rate associated with auditory evoked-related potentials in healthy young women?
Resting heart rate correlates with specific components of auditory evoked-related potentials in healthy young women.

Does not warrant changes in clinical auditory testing; leaves open autonomic-neural links for prospective validation.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between rest heart rate (HR) and the components of the auditory evoked-related potentials (ERPs) at rest in women. We investigated 21 healthy female university students between 18 and 24 years old. We performed complete audiological evaluation and measurement of heart rate for 10 minutes at rest (heart rate monitor Polar RS800CX) and performed ERPs analysis (discrepancy in frequency and duration). There was a moderate negative correlation of the N1 and P3a with rest HR and a strong positive correlation of the P2 and N2 components with rest HR. Larger components of the ERP are associated with higher rest HR.

Regaçone et al. (2015) conducted a cross-sectional in Healthy (n=21). Resting heart rate was evaluated on Components of the auditory evoked-related potentials (ERPs) at rest. Higher resting heart rate was associated with larger components of the auditory evoked-related potential, with strong positive correlations for P2 and N2 and moderate negative for N1 and P3a.
