Abstract

Type 1 diabetes is a metabolic disorder, which has been associated with decreased heart rate variability (HRV) and increased risk for adverse cardiac events. The aim of this paper was to examine HRV dynamics during a cardiorespiratory exercise test. 13 male subjects with type 1 diabetes (age 33.0±6.7 years) and 25 healthy male controls (age 33.7±7.6 years) participated the study. HRV was analysed from pre-exercise rest, warm-up, light exercise (40 W cycling), peak exercise, and recovery time periods. The main finding of the study was that subjects with diabetes had higher HRV complexity (higher multiscale entropy) during peak exercise when compared to healthy controls. HRV during rest, warm-up and light exercise was similar between the groups.
