Background:  Heart rate variability (HRV) and pulse rate variability (PRV) measures are two kinds of physiological indices that can be used to evaluate the autonomic nervous function of healthy subjects and patients with various kinds of illness.   Purpose:  In this study, we compared the agreement and linear relationship between electrocardiographic signals (ECG)-derived HRV and photoplethysmographic signals (PPG)-derived right hand PRV (R-PRV) and left hand PRV (L-PRV) measures in 14 patients over 1 year after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.   Method:  The ECG and PPG signals of the patient were recorded simultaneously for 10 min in a supine position. The last 512 stationary RR intervals (RRI) and peak-to peak intervals (PPI) of pulse wave were derived for data analysis. Bland-Altman plot was used to assess the agreement among HRV and both hand PRV measures, while linear regression analysis was used to examine the relationship among corresponding measures of HRV, R-PRV, and L-PRV.   Result:  The results revealed significant differences in total power (TP), very low-frequency power (VLF), low-frequency power (LF), high-frequency power (HF), and normalized VLF (VLFnorm) among HRV, R-PRV, and L-PRV. Bland-Altman plot analysis showed good agreements in almost all measures between R-PRV and L-PRV, except insufficient agreement was found in LF/HF. Insufficient agreements were found in root mean square successive difference (RMSSD), normalized HF (HFnorm), and LF/HF indices between HRV and L-PRV, and in VLFnorm, HFnorm, and LF/HF indices between HRV and R-PRV. Linear regression analysis showed that the HRV, R-PRV, and L-PRV measures were all highly correlated with one another ( r  = 0.94 ~ 1;  p  &amp;lt; 0.001).   Conclusion:  Though PRV measures of either hand are not surrogates of HRV measures, they might still be used to evaluate the autonomic nervous functions of CABG patients due to the moderate to good agreements in most time-domain and frequency-domain HRV measures and the strong and positive correlations among HRV and both hands PRV measures in CABG patients.
