摘要:
In a subject undergoing therapeutic intervention, efficacy of the therapeutic intervention is assessed based on a series of physiologic data associated with the subject. The series of physiologic data is analyzed to produce a measure of complexity. The complexity measure is then compared to a control. The efficacy of the therapeutic intervention is assessed based on the comparison of the complexity measure to the control. The control may be, for example, a complexity measure taken prior to initiation of the therapeutic intervention, a complexity measure taken from a different subject, or a predetermined threshold value. The measure of complexity is generated using, for example, a multiscale entropy measurement (MSE), a time asymmetry measurement, and/or an information-based similarity measurement. An increase in complexity indicates a positive effect of the therapeutic intervention, while a decrease in complexity indicates a negative effect of the therapeutic intervention.

An increase in complexity indicates a positive effect of the therapeutic intervention, while a decrease in complexity indicates a negative effect of the therapeutic intervention. Stability of a non-biologic network, such as a computer network, communications network or transportation network can also be assessed.
摘要:
An assessment of sleep quality and sleep disordered breathing is determined from the cardiopulmonary coupling between two physiological data series. In an embodiment, an R-R interval series is derived from an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal. The normal beats from the R-R interval series are extracted to produce a normal-to-normal (NN) interval series. The amplitude variations in the QRS complex are used to extract to a surrogate respiration signal (i.e., ECG-derived respiration (EDR)) that is associated with the NN interval series. The two series are corrected to remove outliers, and resampled. The cross-spectral power and coherence of the two resampled signals are calculated over a plurality of coherence windows. For each coherence window, the product of the coherence and cross-spectral power is used to calculate coherent cross power. Using the appropriate thresholds for the coherent cross power, the proportion of sleep spent in CAP, non-CAP, and wake and/or REM are determined.

Coherent cross-power can be applied to differentiate obstructive from non-obstructive disease, and admixtures of the same.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for determining a pathology in a subject, said method comprising: a) correlating N-N intervals with rate dependent fluctuations of electrocardiographic parameters derived from an electrocardiogram (ECG) of said subject or other recordings reflecting cardiac activity of said subject to derive electrocardiographic parameters correlation values, wherein said pathology is determined based on said correlation values.
