Key result
Heart rate variability measurement offers a low-cost, non-invasive method to assess autonomic dysfunction, serving as a potential diagnostic and prognostic tool in perioperative and critical care.
Why the study?
Does measurement of heart rate variability provide diagnostic and prognostic utility in surgical and critically ill patients?

May warrant preoperative ANS evaluation in select patients; leaves open whether assessment improves perioperative outcomes.
Mazzeo et al. (2011) conducted a review in Patients undergoing anesthesia or admitted to intensive care. Heart rate variability (HRV) measurement was evaluated. Heart rate variability measurement offers a low-cost, non-invasive method to assess autonomic dysfunction, serving as a potential diagnostic and prognostic tool in perioperative and critical care.
