ABSTRACT:
A device and method in which spectral analysis of heart rate variability is performed in order to assess autonomic balance. When a threshold level is reached, a diagnostic mode is triggered in which the device performs computationally intensive data analysis to assess the probability of a pathological event such as an arrhythmia occurring.
