Table 3.

Corresponding relation between the mean values of HRV measures and stress level [31].

Variable Mean Value Stress Level
SDNN >50 Non-Stressed, ANS's regulating function and stress coping abilityis good
35–50 Normal, ANS's regulating function and stress coping ability is normal
20–35 High, there's risk of developing stress induced disease
<20 Very High,there's high risk of having chronic stress induced disease

LF/HF >2.0  Hyper Sympathetic activation, related to acute stress
0.5–2.0 Normal,clinically considered as ANS balanced status
<0.5 Hyper Parasympathetic activation, related to chronic stress
