Effects of Heat Stress on Heart Rate Variability in Free-Moving Sheep and Goats Assessed With Correction for Physical Activity

Effects of Heat Stress on Heart Rate Variability in Free-Moving Sheep and Goats Assessed With Correction for Physical Activity

Heart rate variability (HRV) is the heart beat-to-beat variation under control of the cardiovascular function of animals. Under stressed conditions, cardiac activity is generally regulated with an upregulated sympathetic tone and withdrawal of vagal tone; thus, HRV monitoring can be a non-invasive t...
