Temporal Analysis of Cardiovascular and Respiratory Complexity by Multiscale Entropy Based on Symbolic Dynamics.
The effect of an orthostatic stress on cardiovascular and respiratory complexity was investigated to detect impaired autonomic regulation in patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS). A total of 16 female patients and 12 age-matched healthy female subjects were enrolled in a passive 70° head-up tilt test. Also, 12 age-matched healthy male subjects were enrolled to study gender differences. Analysis was performed dynamically using various short-term (5 min) windows shifted by 1 min as well as by 20 min of orthostatic phase (OP) to evaluate local and global complexity. Complexity was determined over multiple time scales by the established method of refined composite multiscale entropy (RCMSE) and by a new proposed method of multiscale entropy based on symbolic dynamics (MSE-SD). Concerning heart rate variability (HRV) during OP, both methods revealed the highest complexity for female controls followed by lower complexity in male controls (p < 0.01) and by the lowest complexity in female patients (p < 0.01). For blood pressure variability (BPV), no gender differences in controls were shown by any method. However, MSE-SD demonstrated highly significantly increased BPV complexity in patients during OP (p < 0.01 on 4 time-scales after 7 min, p < 0.001 on 5 time-scales after 11 min) while RCMSE did not reveal considerable differences (p < 0.05 on 2 time scales after 7 min). Respiratory complexity was further increased in patients primary shown by MSE-SD. Findings indicated impaired autonomic regulation in VVS patients characterized by predominantly increased BPV complexity accompanied with decreased HRV complexity. In addition, results suggested extending the concept of complexity loss with disease.
