Heart rate turbulence as risk-predictor after myocardial infarction
Heart Rate Turbulence (HRT) is the baroreflex-mediated short-term oscillation of cardiac cycle lengths after spontaneous ventricular premature complexes (VPC). HRT is composed of a brief heart rate acceleration followed by a gradual heart rate deceleration. In high risk patients after myocardial inf...
