Clinical Trial: Early Heart Rate Variability and Sleep and Quality of Recovery After Cesarean Delivery

U.S., Oct. 28 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07897331) titled 'Early Heart Rate Variability and Sleep and Quality of Recovery After Cesarean Delivery' on Oct. 13.

Brief Summary: This prospective single-center observational cohort study investigates whether objectively measured early postoperative heart rate variability (HRV) and sleep parameters are associated with patient-reported quality of recovery after cesarean delivery. Women who deliver by cesarean section wear a consumer wrist device (Garmin Vivosmart 5) on the non-dominant wrist during the in-hospital period (first 48 hours). HRV metrics (e.g., RMSSD), continuous heart rate, and sleep are derived from raw beat-to-beat intervals via the...
