Overview

This article focuses on the evaluation of the Träbert current on the autonomic nervous system by parameters of heart rate variability in healthy probands. In this study, a statistically significant increase of the indices of spectral analysis of heart rate variability in frequency domain (Power HF) and time domain (RR intervals, mean square succesive differences) after application of the Träbert current (increase of vagal activity) were found.

Keywords:

autonomic nervous system – heart rate variability – spectral analysis – Träbert current
