Heart Rate Variability and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.
The psychophysiology of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) points towards autonomic dysregulation—specifically, elevated sympathetic response and attenuated parasympathetic response. In view of this, heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback has been applied and tested as a treatment for PTSD. Review of existing published research suggests that HRV biofeedback seems promising as a treatment fo...
متن کاملMeta-Analysis of Heart Rate Variability as a Psychophysiological Indicator of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a com¬mon mental health problem among combat veterans. PTSD is a psychiatric condition that can develop after exposure to extremely stressful life events. It is characterized by more than 1 month of re-experiencing, avoidance, and hyper-arousal symptoms [1]. The current combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan have resulted in a considerably large number...
متن کاملHeart Rate Variability for Quantification of Autonomic Dysfunction in Fibromyalgia.
OBJECTIVE To quantify autonomic dysfunction in fibromyalgia patients compared to healthy controls using heart rate variability (HRV). METHODS Sixteen patients with fibromyalgia and 16 healthy controls were recruited in this case control study. HRV was measured using the time-domain method incorporating the following parameters: total heartbeats, the mean of intervals between consecutive heart...
متن کاملHeart rate variability (HRV) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD): a pilot study.
Exposure to combat experiences is associated with increased risk of developing Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy have garnered a significant amount of empirical support for PTSD treatment; however, they are not universally effective with some patients continuing to struggle with residual PTSD symptoms. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a m...
متن کاملIndividual differences in resting heart rate variability and cognitive control in posttraumatic stress disorder
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is characterized by deficits in cognitive functioning, particularly cognitive control. Moreover, these deficits are thought to play a critical role in the etiology and maintenance of core PTSD symptoms such as intrusive thoughts and memories. However, the psychophysiological concomitants of cognitive control remain largely unexamined. In this article, we su...
