Preliminary evidence for the evolution in complexity of heart rate dynamics during autonomic maturation in neonatal swine

Previous studies suggest that the autonomic nervous system plays an important role in the generation of complex heart rate dynamics. Therefore, we hypothesized that the complexity (irregularity) of cardiac interbeat intervals would evolve with the maturation of autonomic innervation to the heart. Tw...
