Deriving heart rate variability indices from cardiac monitoring-An indicator of driver sleepiness.

CONCLUSIONS: The association of HRV indices to KSS did not depend on the preprocessing strategy. No preprocessing method showed superiority for HRV association to driver sleepiness. This was also true for combinations of methods for frequency domain HRV indices. The results prove clear relationships between HRV indices and perceived sleepiness. Thus, HRV analysis shows promise for driver sleepiness detection. PMID: 30978124 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
