Spectral analysis of heart rate variability was used to assess autonomic nervous system activity associated with episodes of nocturnal myocardial ischaemia in 32 patients (20 men, age 58 +/- 9 years) with extensive coronary artery disease. Twenty-four hour Holter tape recordings were analysed and spectral indexes of heart rate variability were computed by fast Fourier analysis on 2 min segments covering the period from 10 min before to 10 min after each nocturnal ischaemic episode, defined as ST segment depression &gt; or = 1 mm lasting at least 4 min. Spectral power was measured at low frequencies (LF: 0.06-0.10 Hz) and high frequencies (HF: 0.15-0.40 Hz) and the ratio LF/HF was calculated. RESULTS. A total of 30 episodes of nocturnal ischaemia were analysed. High frequency spectral power showed a clear decrease during the 10 min before the onset of ischaemia, remained steady until the end of the episode, and returned to normal by 6 min after. Low frequency spectral power fluctuated throughout the ischaemic episodes with no clear pattern of variation. The low/high frequency ratio reflected mainly the changes in high frequency. CONCLUSIONS. Sympathetic predominance due to para-sympathetic withdrawal is the principal change in autonomic nervous system activity associated with episodes of nocturnal ischaemia.
