Validation of PC-based Sound Card with Biopac for Digitalization of ECG Recording in Short-term HRV Analysis

Good news for Dr. Scott Hardens, PhD. Sound Card ECG:

«Conclusion: On the basis of the results of the present study, we suggest that the calculation of HRV values in the time and frequency domains by RR series obtained from the PC-based sound card is probably as reliable as those obtained by the gold standard Biopac MP36.»

The validators used Audacity for the Sound Card ECG, but they did as far as I know not specifiy which software they used for the Biopac MP35.

According to Scott s personal website, he is alive and kicking and programming all the time:

That s fine, Scott. But don t forget to let go and to use your Sound Card ECG daily for letting go.
