Abstract:

Heart rate recovery, a widely used indicator in clinical evaluation of the autonomic nervous system, refers to the difference between maximum heart rate during exercise and the heart rate after 1 or a few minutes of cessation. It possesses advantages of being noninvasive and repeatable. Currently, heart rate recovery is extensively applied in cardiovascular diseases for evaluating disease severity, prognosis, risk of cardiovascular events, and mortality. This article primarily discusses the application value and current research progress of heart rate recovery in cardiovascular diseases.

Key words: heart rate recovery, autonomic nervous system, cardiovascular system, coronary heart disease, chronic heart failure
