ABSTRACT
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent condition, resulting in recurrent hypoxic events, sleep arousal, and daytime sleepiness. Patients with OSA are at an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The mechanisms underlying the development of cardiovascular disease in OSA are multifactorial and cause a cascade of events. The primary contributing factor is sympathetic overactivity. Heart rate variability (HRV) can be used to evaluate shifts in the autonomic nervous system, during sleep and in response to treatment in patients with OSA. Newer technologies are aimed at improving HRV analysis to accelerate processing time, improve the diagnosis of OSA, and detection of cardiovascular risk. The present review will present contemporary understandings and uses for HRV, specifically in the realms of physiology, technology, and clinical management.
