Abstract

This work shows that it is possible to model the heart rate autonomic control from samples of ECG, PPG and respiratory flow waveform (RFW). Usually, such modelling is carried out with physiological signals that are more difficult to acquire during the clinical exams: ECG, arterial blood pressure and instantaneous lung volume. In this work, the ECG, PPG and RFW were recorded with a portable system from volunteers at two different postures: supine and standing. The ECG, PPG and RFW were processed off line in order to obtain the RR, the inverse of the pulse wave transit time (IPWTT) and the RFW series. These series were used as input for ARMA models and the obtained results were compared to the ones available in the literature. The qualitative and quantitative comparisons of the results reveal very similar performance.
