Selected HRV measures (Time domain measures)

Parameter Unit Description
SDNN ms SD of all normal R wave (N-N) intervals
SDANN ms SD of all 5min average N-N intervals
SDNN index ms Mean of the SDs for 5 min segments
RMSSD ms Square root of mean of the sum of squares of successive N-N interval difference. Reflects vagal modulation
pNN 50% Number of successive N-N intervals differing by >50ms divided by the total number of successive N-N intervals. Reflects vagal function
