In a number of studies, ME/CFS study participants demonstrate lower heart rate variability (HRV) nocturnally compared to controls. Low heart rate variability may be linked to fatigue and unrefreshing sleep. More research to confirm and extend prior work is needed. HRV measures used in prior studies include HRV (heart rate variability), LF power (low-frequency power(ms?)), HF power (high-frequency power(ms?)), LF/HF ratio, TP (Total power(ms?)), RMSSD (root of the mean squares of differences between adjacent R–R intervals), SDNN (standard deviation on R–R intervals), COVR (coefficient of variation), PNN50 (number of pairs of adjacent R–R intervals differing by 450 ms divided by the total number of R–R intervals). Researchers should try to include one if not more of these measures when investigating HRV. HRV can be confounded by many factors and these should be taken into account when designing studies. Some factors that have been identified are age, gender, medication use, presence of a psychiatric condition, physical activity, breathing rate/ frequency, heart disease, and acute stress situations. The equipment used should have been validated against a gold standard like ECG.

C57104 Acclimation period before study indicator AcclmPrdBfrStdyInd Indicator of whether there was an acclimation period (e.g. a night when subjects were set up for a polysomnography (PSG) but no official measurements (taken) or instructions given to subjects before the study began to individual subjects Indicator of whether there was an acclimation period (e.g. a night when subjects were set up for a polysomnography (PSG) but no official measurements (taken) or instructions given to subjects before the study began to individual subjects Was there an acclimation period (e.g. a night when subjects were set up for polysomnography (PSG) but no official measurements taken) or instructions given to subjects before the study began for individual subjects? No;Yes No;Yes Alphanumeric

Acclimation in this CRF is defined as a night when subjects were set up for PSG but no official measurements taken. Without an acclimation periods, results from PSG could be a reflection of study participants' adaptation to PSG rather than effects of the ME/CFS itself. Instructions given before a sleep study may also impact results. For example, some researchers have asked study participants to avoid caffeine for 24 hours pre-study.

Use of prescription/ over-the-counter medications, herbal concoctions, and various supplements can affect sleep study results. Consequently it is important for researchers to communicate how these were accounted for in their studies.
