Abstract
A method for analyzing heart rate variability, and an apparatus and use thereof, the method for analyzing heart rate variability including collecting ECG data in vitro; digitizing and denoising the ECG data; forming the processed ECG data into a sinus NN interval sequence; selecting sinus NN interval data of 4 hours in an awake state; performing MSE calculation on the sinus NN interval sequence of 4 hours in an awake state; and extracting parameters representing the complexity of a heart rate by using MSE curves. The present invention may provide accurate and efficient screening for drug-refractory epilepsy patients who are suitable for vagus nerve stimulation surgery, thus avoiding unnecessary expenses, and avoiding missing the most opportune moment for treatment. At the same time, patients suitable for VNS surgery are selected by using MSE complexity feature parameters of ECG, thus improving the overall efficacy of VNS therapy.
