Power spectral analysis of heart rate variability was performed to assess cardiac autonomic function using Holter monitoring in 19 hospitalized patients with symptomatic NYHA class II-III hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (sHCM), 20 ambulatory patients with asymptomatic NYHA class I hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (asHCM) and 20 normal control subjects. Power spectral analysis decomposed the heart rate variability into high-frequency power (HF: 0.15-0.40 Hz) and low-frequency power (LF: 0.04-0.15 Hz). HF was corrected by mean RR intervals (CCVHF). CCVHF values and LF/HF ratios were used as indices of vagal and sympathetic modulations, respectively. The sHCM group demonstrated no significant elevation in CCVHF during the nighttime as compared to the daytime, while asHCM and control groups showed significant CCVHF elevation during the nighttime (p < 0.05-0.01). The nighttime CCVHF, therefore, was significantly lower in the sHCM group than in the control or asHCM group (sHCM, 1.08 +/- 0.36%; control, 1.60 +/- 0.57%; asHCM 1.82 +/- 0.77%; sHCM vs. control or sHCM vs. asHCM, p < 0.01). All of these three groups showed significant reduction in LF/HF ratio during the nighttime as compared to the daytime (p < 0.01). However, the reduction in the sHCM group was not as great as that in the control group and there was a significant difference between the sHCM and control group (2.01 +/- 1.58 vs. 1.08 +/- 0.65, p < 0.05). Two patients in the sHCM group, who later died suddenly, demonstrated very low CCVHF throughout a 24-hour period (0.2-0.8%). Both vagal and sympathetic impairment with a predominance of vagal abnormalities is suggested in patients with symptomatic NYHA class II or III hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
