Hyperventilation-induced Heart Rate Response As a Potential Marker for Cardiovascular Disease
Scientific reports(2019)
摘要
An increase of heart rate to physical or mental stress reflects the ability of the autonomous nervous system and the heart to respond adequately. Hyperventilation is a user-controlled breathing maneuver that has a significant impact on coronary function and hemodynamics. Thus, we aimed to investigate if the heart rate response to hyperventilation (HRR HV ) can provide clinically useful information. A pooled analysis of the HRR HV after 60 s of hyperventilation was conducted in 282 participants including healthy controls; patients with heart failure (HF); coronary artery disease (CAD); a combination of both; or patients suspected of CAD but with a normal angiogram. Hyperventilation significantly increased heart rate in all groups, although healthy controls aged 55 years and older (15 ± 9 bpm) had a larger HRR HV than each of the disease groups (HF: 6 ± 6, CAD: 8 ± 8, CAD+/HF+: 6 ± 4, and CAD−/HF−: 8 ± 6 bpm, p < 0.001). No significant differences were found between disease groups. The HRR HV may serve as an easily measurable additional marker of cardiovascular health. Future studies should test its diagnostic potential as a simple, inexpensive pre-screening test to improve patient selection for other diagnostic exams.
