Abstract :
Presents the results of the study carried out on a group of patients with ischemic episodes by way of the analysis of the heart rate variability (HRV). These results show the existence of determined HRV patterns associated with different types of ischemic episodes, which makes possible the use of this technique for the monitoring of myocardial ischemia. A methodology of heart rate signal processing has been used which is especially indicated for the study of short duration phenomena, such as ischemic episodes
