This paper reviews the published work of me along with my students and close colleagues on the topic of heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB). It includes early research by Vaschillo documenting resonance characteristics of the baroreflex system that causes large oscillations in heart rate when breathing at resonance frequency, research on heart rate variability as a marker of parasympathetic stress response in asthma, and HRVB as a treatment for asthma and depression. Many questions about HRVB remain unresolved, and important questions for future research are listed.
本文回顾了我与我的学生及亲密同事发表的关于心率变异性生物反馈(HRVB)主题的研究成果。其中包括瓦希洛早期的研究,该研究记录了压力反射系统的共振特性,即在共振频率下呼吸时会导致心率大幅波动;关于心率变异性作为哮喘中副交感神经应激反应标志物的研究;以及HRVB作为哮喘和抑郁症治疗方法的研究。关于HRVB的许多问题仍未得到解决,并列出了未来研究的重要问题。
