Association Between Phase Coupling of Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmia and Slow Wave Brain Activity During Sleep

Phase coupling of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) has been proposed to be an alternative measure for evaluating autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity. The aim of this study was to analyze how phase coupling of RSA is altered during sleep, in order to explore whether this measure is a predictor...
