Summary
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a well-established cardiovascular and autonomic health metric in the medical literature. However, its applicability is limited by the difficulty of analysis and interpretation in clinical practice. Given that the intracranial pressure (ICP) waveform is the manifestation of the vascular pulse wave that originates from cardiac muscle contraction, we will evaluate whether the interval between ICP pulse waves assessed noninvasively with Brain4care technology is the same as the R-R interval assessed by electrocardiography in healthy patients, in an attempt to universalize autonomic analysis in clinical practice.
