Vagal Tone Biofeedback: Respiratory and Non-respiratory Mediated Modulations of Vagal tone Challenged by Cold Pressor Test
Deficient parasympathetic activity to the heart has been hypothesized to underlie some forms of cardiovascular disease. Consequently, this experiment attempted to induce non- respiratory mediated increases in cardiac parasympathetic activity. Thirty-nine subjects were asked to increase their vagal t...
