s: seconds; SDNN: standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals in milliseconds; RMSSD: root mean square of successive differences in milliseconds; lnSDNN: natural logarithm of SDNN; lnRMSSD: natural logarithm of RMSSD; SD: Standard Deviation; Avg10s: the average of the measurements from the three 10s recordings.
