Abstract excerpt
This study assesses complexity of cardiovascular control in patients affected by type-1 variant of long QT (LQT1) syndrome. Complexity was assessed by refined multiscale entropy of heart period (HP) and QT interval variabilities. HP was taken as the time distance between two consecutive R peaks (RR) and QT interval was approximated as the time distance between the R-peak and T-wave apex (RTa) and between R-peak...
