This Week In HRV - Episode 43

This week on This Week in Heart Rate Variability, we explore four studies that collectively challenge us to think more deeply about what autonomic function tells us — and what it doesn't tell us on its own. From addiction treatment to heart failure, adolescent fitness to chronic pain, this episode traces the threads connecting heart rate variability to some of the most pressing questions in clinical and population health. Whether you're a practitioner, researcher, or someone tracking your own autonomic health, there's something in this episode that will change how you think about what your nervous system is doing.RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS THIS WEEK1.
